My Samsung TV is dotted/snowy when I turn it on. If I unplug it and then turn it on, the picture is clear… although a line remains across the top of snow/dots. Can I repair?

Except now, half the screen would go white instead of black with a few red pixels in the white… and just today I turned it on and the whole image on the...

I have tried new cables. The audio keeps coming and going, with the picture coming and going also. Is that the antenna signal that cuts in and out? Reposition the antenna HIGHER and toward the TV towers. Now if you see the problem on a game or DVD player, it's not the antenna, it's the TV set. And if it's cutting in and out, it must be power supply related,...

Honestly, it sounds like a power supply problem, but I haven't had the time to research it in depth. (or have a repairman visit since it's out of warranty and the amount CC...
