Cannot receive some channels
displayed on the program
listings.
≥Cable TV subscribers receive channel data for all available channels your cable TV provider
offers. In order to view all the channels, you’d also have to subscribe to all the channels. If you
are connected to an over-the-air antenna the channel data you receive often represents a
viewing area larger than you would typically be able to receive. Your location, the type of TV
antenna you are using and your distance from each station’s transmitting antenna will all
determine which channels are viewable from your location. Once you’ve determined which
channels can be received, all others can be removed from the program listings. Set these
channels to “OFF” in the CHANNEL EDITOR screen.

Some over-the-air or cable
channels are not listed on the
