For other brands, the VCR tunes the receiver to the desired channel only if the receiver is turned on. Position the satellite receiver above the VCR as shown in the Connections section.

Satellite Viewing Channels

Even though you are offered channels 1-125, most modern satellite systems can only broadcast to channels 3, 4 or the Video INPUT “channel” (Selected with the INPUT button on the remote control). It is highly recommended that you chose one of these three for your satellite system’s broadcast. For more information about Video line input, see “How to Find Your TV’s Video Input Channel” in the References section of this manual.
