Why is my television snowy when I turn it on?

Your television's picture tube(i. e. cathode ray tube or gun) might became aged. Every picture tube has its own lifespan which is usally mentioned in usable hours. Your picture tube might exceeded or nearing its lifespan.

Your cable is most likely not connected, or you need to turn to channel 3 or 4. Also try to find auto search in the television menu so it will find channels for you. If you are trying to watch over the air tv, it has switched to HDTV, and you must get a HDTV converter box.

If you have a satellite, you are possibly on the wrong channel to use it. If not you are possibly on a channel that you do not receive through your cable company.

Your television may be snowy because it is not getting a good signal from the cable or antenna. It can usually be fixed by moving the antenna or cable.
