My Polaroid doesn't pick up any digital channels

  • Anonymous Apr 28, 2010

    I have scanned in all the TV modes and with the cable in both coaxial inputs. I have plugged a crappy Magnavox to the same cable and it picks up every channel including the HD ones.

When I got the remote control and started the channel setup, it only picked up Digital channels, and I don't know how to have all of the other cable channels show up. The channel numbers come up like...

This is a newer TV. It doesn't have an analog tuner. You will have to buy the analog to digital converter box and re-scan your channels, or switch to a digital cable/dish provider.

Will this tv pick up digital signals if i use an outside antenna?it says hdtv on the front of the tv.the model is FLM-3201

This tv would need a converter box. It does not appear to have a digital atsc tuner in order for you to get digital over the air channels. Searching for channels is on page 18 of the manual

I have a polaroid hdtv model TLA-d1911c that wont get a local channel.I bought a new antenna and hooked it up but it still wont pick anything up.

You may be looking in the wrong place or have the wrong kind of antenna. With the digital conversion, TV channels shifted from the numbers they used before. In my area, the previous Channel 6 is now broadcasting in the UHF band.
It can be harder to adjust the antenna for a digital TV because it is either working well or totally off - no gradually decreasing "snow" as a clue.
It is possible your TV is not equipped to pick up digital TV. There are converters to translate digital TV to analog signals for older TV. They cost between $30 and $70 depending on features.

Is my polaroid TLX-04244B Digital

I checked out the manual for a similar model tv from polaroid...there's only one input for the coax cable from your antenna, so if the antenna's cable is connected to this input, this couldn't be the problem. What I do have trouble with on my own tv is that my indoor antenna location can make huge differences in recognizing all available digital signals. I could even have the antenna facing a different direction, and get different results. There are a few sites you can google for to find your distance from the broadcast towers, too. This might help to determine if you need a stronger antenna. It's a painfully long procedure to try different angles and positions for your antenna each time you run a channel scan, but this might be the only thing that would prevent you from picking up the digitals. I try the highest spot possible, and the one closest to the outdoors. Good luck, I hope you can pick them up soon! (Any antenna works...the industry tries to pass off "digital/hdtv specific antennas" to make a buck. I've used a cheapy rabbit-ears antenna and was able to bring in digital channels, as long as your tv or converter box is converting the signal.)
