Hmm, I would try to find a voltage adapter that would output 120 volts AC 60Hz. They are not hard to find here in the U.S. You maybe able to find one online somewhere for sale. Most of the Voltage adapters that ive have seen here can only be used overseas for lets say like 220 volts AC 50Hz into 120 volts AC 60Hz. I would think that would be the best solution for your situation. I know if I ever came across a set from Europe, I might have a hard time looking for a voltage adapter that would do 120 volts AC 60Hz into 220 volts AC 50Hz. I noticed you said you were feeding your set 117v instead of 120v. I know thats not much difference but would 3 volts make a difference. Also if you have a DVD player try putting it into NTSC mode if it has that feature and see if picture stops rolling. did your VCR display a rolling picture in color. If so, seems like your VCR is putting out a 50Hz NTSC signal instead of an 60Hz NTSC siganl. I have an old C/KU-Band Satellite dish that I use to watch the free stuff thats up on Satellite. Sometimes I can pick up signals from South America and Europe. South America uses PAL in 60Hz so any NTSC TV will display good picture but it shows up in Black and white. Broadcast from Europe will be in black and white plus the picture will roll because of the 50Hz PAL broadcast, Any set with a Vertical Hold control will fix that problem. But things are all going digital in the satellite world so NTSC/PAL problems are almost a thing of the past.
