Menu- set up- channel set up- auto installation.
When new channels become available on DTV (free to air) the TV spacks out and needs to be 'tuned' again. Worked for me when my tv displayed this exact same thing.

It means that the tv doesn't gets the correct signal from the cable or the antenna - check them.

SOURCE: Failed to receive broadcast E202 Sharp

What do you mean exactly when you say "failed to receive broadcast"? Does it not get a signal of any sort? What about from DVDs, do you have a DVD player attached, does that work? Did it used to work just fine with regular TV signal?

Thanks, let me know more and I can definitely help!

SOURCE: 37 inch Sharp Aquos. "Failed to receive Broadcast [E202]"

Well I tried a cable amplifier & that solved my problem. I now get all HD channels without an HD cable box.

SOURCE: Turned on set....screen all black except a dark blue rectangle in center which reads:Failed to receive broadcast [E202]

That message is presented when a selected digital channel is too weak to decode. Let us hope that something was accidentally changed:

Is the channel legitimate?
Is the antenna/cable still connected (to the Digital input)?
Go into menu - setup - channel setup. Is the selection of either cable or air channels correct for your situation?
Use menu - setup - Antenna Setup-DIGITAL to examine the signal strength. Is there nothing at all, or is it just a question of strength?

Odds favor a change in channel setup that you would not have made intentionally, or a simple physical problem (input cable, etc.). Start from scratch, and check the settings and connections you originally made. Hopefully it will be simple and cheap!

This is my modem log any ideas for a solution to my random DC's

The router actually has major issues. First, check the power cord to make sure that it's operating in the right voltage.

If it is, then through the command line type tracert followed by a website. If there is no response from the first address, then it will not detect the router.

If this happens, change the router.

Sharp Aquos LC-52D64U LCD-52 wdscrn tht won't scan in digital...

Seeing that you have a superior brand and not getting channels is a bummer. It may have to do with the setting, make sure you're set to cable rather antenna and then do a rescan. Btw, often times channels from an over the antenna is much clearer than from cable because cable tv has to compress the signal. If you're high in the air like the top floor of a building a cheap $10 will pull in great free digital channels. It helps to experiment and read the troubleshooting guide in your manual.
