I don't believe I've posted this here before. If anyone tries this, I'd love to have you post your experience here.  This is from Dick Sutphen's newsletter:

1. Make sure the remote control is programmed so that an active channel
appears with every "flip" as you move either forward or backward
through the channel selections. (You may, if you wish, include one
blank channel to represent "no," or "nothing," or "Try again.")

2. Using the remote, mute the volume on the television.

3. Make sure you can find both the channel-select and the mute buttons
with your eyes closed. Use two hands if you have to.

4. Close your eyes, ask your question aloud, and start flipping. When
the spirit moves you, quickly press the mute button to activate the
audio.

5. Listen carefully to the first two or three seconds of sound. Press
the mute button again to turn off the sound and consider for a moment
what you heard. You only want to hear the tiniest of sound bits.

6. While one word is often enough for your oracular answer, you may
want to keep your eyes closed, repeat the process several times, and
string together the words you hear.

The Couch-Potato Oracle, or TV roulette-o-mancy, can be downright
inscrutable with its responses. Don't be too quick to dismiss the
answer as invalid. Take some time to think about it. If you feel you
must try it more than once, consider the subsequent answers a
continuation of the conversation. For example, my ninety-year-old
mother is in failing health. This morning I asked, "What can I do to
make my mother feel better?" Three consecutive answers from three
different channels counseled me to

* Bring something to eat.
* Make funny faces.
* It may embarrass the child, but that's okay.

Love, Mairlyn 

I'm going to try this tomorrow..if I tried it now, my husband would think I'd lost my mind

You don't even need to interveen, I get oracles even when I don't seek them.
