right from the wall to the tv. and its from comcast.
got ya comcast.. they are giving free digital boxes out with a remote because they are converting from analog to digital. (my bedroom tv was set up the same way ie through the wall no box) so call your local comcast office and get a free remote and free digital box

if you don't you will not be able to even view basic cable through the wall

thanks all, I will try cleaning it tonight before spending any money on replacement
That's what I'd do too.

Dave, as much as I love all the gadgets I don't perticualry want to spend $250 and up on the remote. Thanks for your advise anyway.
Tommi no problem at all Just so you know they start at $59 and those lower models program up to 7 different remotes well worth the money for anyone ever considering one.

Tommi, get the Harmony 510 - it controls everything that is not PS3. Look for it on Amazon , eBay etc. for $60 or so.
