BC = Blanked Channel | Channel was blanked using BLANK channel option (ADD/DEL/BLNK). |
ADDING / DELETING CHANNELS
It is best to do ADD / DEL customizing before doing “BLNK.”
AUTO PROGRAM enters the same channels in Banks 1, 2, 3, and 4.
AUTO PROGRAM removes any channels previously customized with ADD / DEL / BLNK. The channels available on your antenna / cable will be entered, and any channels previously entered but not currently available will be deleted.
ADD and DEL (not BLNK) can be used independently for channel banks 1, 2, 3, and 4.
A channel blanked, is blanked in all channel banks.
Channel allocations in tuning bands:
BROADCAST: 2 – 69
CABLE – CATV, HRC or ICC: 1 – 125
