My tv was programme on c?ble, but I have to swith with anten for camping. I can't???

See if the tuner on the TV has a provision to add both analog AND digital channels as a choice. If so, then select that and then do a new channel search. Ask if the cable company uses standard or irc channel spacing and set your tuner on the TV to match.

If the television was manufactured before 2005, there are likely no longer any channels still broadcasting that your television will be able to receive. You may need to find a DIGITAL CONVERTER BOX.

ok,if you have a subscription to cable,you will have a cable box,you will only need to put your tv on cable and ch 3 or 4 on your tv,you dont need to search for channels,if you dont have a subscription,then you are trying to pick up over the air channels,they are called digital channels,you will need a digital tv antenna and your hdtv,you will change the settings on your tv to air or antenna,then you can search for digital channels,there are no more analog channels like we had when we are kids,they are all digital and dont need to be tuned in,if you still cant get channels please have someone help you.

The Sanyo codes appear to be 620, 801, 931 . Turn on the TV, press and hold Set-up until the light comes on and enter the three digit code. Check if the TV responds (volume, channel). If not try the next code.

To search all codes: turn on the TV, press and hold the Set-up button. Then press Channel + slowly but repeatedly until the channel changes. Press Enter (if you overshoot, press Channel - to before pressing enter.) To record the code, turn on the TV, press and hold Set-up, then press Set-up again and type 0-9 individually until the indicator light blinks. That is digit 1, repeat the search from 0-9 for the other two digits.

If your TV was released ~6 months before the remote was programmed or is newer than the remote, then the code you need may not be in the remote's programming. In that case, you need a newer remote, one of the remotes that is programmable (USB to a computer), or a remote specific to your TV (try remotes.com and search on the TV model - leave off the brand name).

I hope this helps.

''Brought a Coles $259 Nu-tec DVD/Tv combo got it home and set it up with a indoor digital ''

Poor English!

It should read; ''Bought a Coles $259 Nu-tec DVD/Tv combo, brought it home and set it up with a indoor digital ......''

Try an automatic scan. It's probable that they're being transmitted on a different channel in preperation for digital swith over.

I don't know your exact model, but from your description, the set is still in the over-air mode. Check the setup menus for a setting for cable/air and set it to cable. Once that is done, the autoprogram should work. Many of the newer models will scan both options at in sequence, but not all. Let us know if that does not resolve the problem.

What is the model of the TV please?

Sansui TV's come from the factory set for CABLE. If this is a HDLCDVD320, you will have to go into the menu to change the signal type to AIR, then run the automatic search to program in your channels. Their free customer service line is 800 289 0980.
I hope this helps.
