Reception issues
Cable/satellite users:
Please contact your service provider for assistance if you experience any interruptions in our signal.
Over-the-air antenna users:
There are many things that may affect your reception, like the type of antenna, location of the antenna and your location in relation to our signal.
- Do a complete rescan to see what channels are available for viewing in your antenna's current position. Make notes of the antenna position and channels.
- Rotate the antenna 90 degrees and then rescan. Make notes of the antenna position and channels.
- Repeat step 2 until your antenna is in the original position.
- If you find that different positions and scans provide different channels and you want all of them, you may need two antennas, a different antenna, or attempt to find an antenna position in between that will receive them all.

- Check to make sure your antenna is still connected to your TV. This includes antenna, cabling, splitters and/or amplifiers.
- If your antenna uses an amplifier or requires a power source, verify it is plugged in to a reliable wall outlet and verify the amplifier is working.
- If you have an outdoor antenna, make sure the antenna has not been damaged by weather or moved in a different direction due to wind.
- If you have added or removed any TVs or tuners to your antenna, that may also affect your signal quality or strength. If additional TVs/tuners have been added, you may need an amplifier or separate antennas for the additional TVs/tuners.
- Any time your antenna is moved or adjusted, you must rescan to reprogram available stations.
