• In cases when a particular TV won’t receive the Digital Channels we have found that the TV set was manufactured before Digital tuners were required and does not have the capability to receive them.
• Other reasons may be is that the tuner system has been set to “analogue” mode which could result in no channels found when a channel scan is performed.
• Make sure the tuner setting is set to “DVBT” mode then scan channels again.
