    I think it could even scrach the screen

    It won’t scratch the screen or damage it if it’s laid face down….
    I do it all the time with LCD TV sets in my van, but I like to use a nice big bed quilt to lay it on….

    Nice and THICK….they’re just softer that way….

    Now a SNOWY picture can be caused by the black RF antenna wire getting YANKED while moving the TV set…if it was plugged into the TV set that is…..

    If that happened, your worst case scenario is the tuner needs replaced….
    Your BEST CASE scenario is the cable wire in the center of the RF cable is broke and needs replaced or repaired…..

    If you had a VCR and a good tape, you could test the TV’s tuner on channel 3 and see if the picture is clear or not…if not, the tuner will need replacement….
