Signal Strength

This screen lists any channel EVER added to the TV. The list shows the channel number, the station name (only when tuned, e.g. NBC), whether the channel is digital or analog, which tuner is picking up the channel, and current signal strength of digital channels.

When you move the highlight to the Signal Strength list, the TV attempts to tune to that channel. You can then adjust your off-air antenna for maximum signal strength (largest number) for the selected channel. The signal strength for a digital channel will be shown as “- -” until the signal is strong enough for use, then numbers will appear. Analog channels will always have the display, “N/A”, since analog signal strength is not measured.

Only primary channels appear in the list. Digital subchannels, e.g. 8-1, 8-2, do not appear.

Note: If you have both Antenna and Cable channels, press the ANT•CAB button to view your Cable channels, or vice-versa.
