Checking the Digital-Signal Reception

Unlike analog channels, which can vary in reception quality from “snowy” to clear, digital (HDTV) channels have either perfect reception quality or you will not receive them at all. So, unlike analog channels, you cannot fine tune a digital channel. But you can adjust your antenna to improve the reception of available digital channels.

1 Press the MENU button on the remote control.

Use the Menu Up/Down

2 buttons to highlight the Channel icon and press ENTER.

Use the Menu Up/Down

3 buttons to highlight the Check Signal Strength and press ENTER.

If the signal strength meter

4 indicates that the signal is weak, physically adjust your antenna to increase the signal strength. Continue to adjust the antenna until you find the best position with the strongest signal.
