Default Old TV, new cable converter box, old VCR - question

I was able to get the converter box plugged in and, after calling cable, I was able to get the signal that allows me to watch all the channels I wouldn't be able to watch. 'We' got the new remote control to turn the cable converter box on, to change the channels, to get the big "IO" and then choose SEL (Select) in order to see the programs that are on.

However, we (hubby and I) still cannot adjust the sound or mute. For that we have tho use the old remote control. Oh, well, we'll live.I tried 3 times to get someone from Cable to help me but each time my brain would get 'interference' and I would get so tired that I had to give up.

I have not been able to get the VCR to work. Not even after getting another cable to make the connection complete. The VCR will tape...salt and pepper!

Any suggestions?
