I cancelled my cable and switched to Netflix. I'm trying to set up an antenna so I can grab channels 6, 10. and 12.....but I can't find a TV Antenna that will grab service to access these channels. Do I need something besides a TV Antenna for this TV to pick regular TV channels?

First, you can only get digital channels now,so you must have a tv that can receive digital. You can buy digital tv antennas that can receive about 70 miles that mount outside or in your attic. This FCC site can show you where to point the antenna to get the best signal:" https://www.fcc.gov/media/engineering/dtvmaps
Also you can get a signal booster that will help if you can get a minimal signal. The booster will only amplify a signal so if you cant get one at all it won't help.

SOURCE: Digital TV flunked the digital test

The news reported that that several people, despite having cable, satellite, or digital ready televisions still saw the failure test...some sort of glitch. It caused a great deal of confusion. If your mom's TV is digital ready, she is probably one of the many who saw the failure signal by mistake. I thought you didn't need a converter box in with digital ready TVs, but maybe you do. Definately call the manufacturer and ask...I think there's a deadline on the coupons for converter boxes, so definately check this quickly. Good luck.

SOURCE: Auto Scan doesn't pick up any channels.

In the main settings, there should be an option for AIR or CATV, air is for non-cable and CATV is for cable tv. This has to be on the correct setting before you autoscan

A GPX model tvwb534 connecte to an indoor rabit antenna doesn't work?

You either may have the set on Cable setting or the signal is too weak for the set to pick up the channels---indoor antennas have a very limited range and many channels have ended on air broadcasts completely

Why can't I use a digital antenna on my flat

Most televisions today have a setup mode for the tuner where it searches for channels based upon the input type. Older sets required the user to input whether or not the source was over-the-air broadcast, analog cable, or digital cable. If you were using your set with the cable or satellite system previously. you will most likely need to run the setup again with the digital antenna and let the set find the channels available via the antenna.

I installed a coby tv in my RV. Auto scan worked great for a year. Today it picks up no channels at all. Everyone else in RV park has 20+ channels. The scan performs everytime, but picks up nothing

If you've tried all positions with antennae, booster switch is on, and are sure you have all settings on TV correct, try running an alternate cable directly from antennae head to back of current plate where your co-ax from antennae is attached. That will tell you if you have a bad cable or connection from antennae to plate inside. Just get a piece long enough to go through door or window to current spot where connected. If that doesn't cure it, then it's a head or booster switch problem. You can even by-pass the booster and go direct to TV to see if any better.

How to tune channels first time when you purchase a new Sony Kdl 32EX600 LED tv?

Hello
Do connection to the antena if you wants to set the TV auto tuned.
During this initial setup, you can perform the following:

1 Select the language for the on-screen display text.
2 Select HOME or Retail mode. [Here you have to select "Home" mode if the set displays "Retail"

3 Connect cable or antenna, then select OK to run Auto
Program

• If you have cable and antenna available, please connect cable first.

• IMPORTANT: Auto Program is only effective when cable or

antenna is connected. If you cancel Auto Program before completion some channels may not be
available.

4 Auto Program will scan for available channels from the signal source directly connected to

the TV's CABLE/ANTENNA input and may take sometime to complete the process. Follow
the help text provided on the screen to run Auto Program.
OK.
