Anyone have any idea's what this is or how to correct the problem? At my old house I used to stomp on the floor to make it go away, but now its on a concrete floor and Im sick of hearing it!

Sounds like either a bad solder connection or an insulation leak. Either one would require a repairman. Its either a cold temperature or humidity effect.
This was common when I was fixing electronics for a living.

Probably a transistor , since this only happens when it is colder inside and dry air from the homes heating system..try tapping the side of the console once it had powered up and gotten warm... if your not into TV repair it is best to spend 100.00 and have a local shop take a look and repair it.. or save up and buy another , TVs have gotten way cheap to buy in the last 5 years.
and the newer style LCD on the market are safer and more efficient in terms of the energy rating, help save the enviorment

If it is an older type (big and bulky) it probably has a leak in the high voltage insulation which allows leakage in dry weather and drains the excess in damper conditions. You may be able to open the case and slightly rearrange the wires to reduce the contact - only if you know what to look for. Other wise build a box with 1/2" plywood top so you can bounce TV.

It is likely a transistor that oscillates or resonates with the 15,736 Hertz horizontal frequency. If so your hearing is really good.
A TV technician may be able to replace the transistor that is causing this problem.

If you still have the reciept for it you could take it back where you got it or you could look on the back of the tv for a 1-800 help number and call it and recieve help from the manufacturer.
Good Luck!

the problem is possibly related to vibrations led to by using the intense voltage transformer laminations or something comparable. i believe it might take a specialist to repair it and the fee could outweigh its nicely worth.

It's probably having a harder time warming up. Have you tried increasing the heat in the house?
