Sharp 17" TV

On a few channels a black rectangular box appears after the set has been on a short period, less than a minute. You can switch channels and come back and it is ok for a few seconds, then the box comes back.Again this happens on a few channels.

It's the Closed Captioning function I think. I've had the problem with my Sharp TV (and other TV's that have Closed Captioning function). Look at the menu or the manual to see how to turn off Closed Captioning. It might be marked as "CC".

The lower half of the screen is a black box on one channel

Check your closed-captioning settings. You probably have it set for "text". Make sure you turn captioning off and the problem should clear up.
