Our RCA tv is taking a long time to get a picture especially after it has been turned off for awhile. The sound is immediate but pic takes about 1-2 minutes if it has been off for awhile...like overnight....or couple of hours.

you dont say what kind of t.v. it is.I am guessing a direct view crt maybe 27 or 32 inch.some of the rca 195 and 203 chassis were known for loose solder on the coils in the horiz drive and flyback area.some of the models even had bulletins out
