Automatic Channel Programming: process in which the VCR scans all available channels and places the ones you receive in its memory. Then, when you press the CHANNEL Up/Down buttons, you only scan through channels you receive.

Bands: settings that allow you to tune channels.

Antenna – VHF (very high frequency; channels 2 - 13) and UHF (ultra high frequen- cy; channels 14 - 69).

Cable – standard channels can be received without a Cable Box.

Cable Box/DSS Receiver Output Channel: channel 03 or 04.

DSS Receiver: Digital Satellite System Receiver.

Dubbing: copying a tape using a second VCR.

Frame: a single still picture.

OTR: one touch recording; programming a timed recording that starts immediately and records for 30 minutes to nine hours, whichever you specify.

Remote Control: the small electronic unit that came with your VCR; allows you to operate your VCR from a distance. The remote control may also operate some fea- tures of your TV, Cable Box, or DSS Receiver.
