Is anyone else having issues with their television? I can't seem to pickup any clear channels.
In fact, I can't even get a clear channel in my driveway when there is a TV in the house with rabbitt ears that gets all the locals very clear.
Is something wrong? Is there something that I need to do to get the antenna working?
HELP!
James

James, you need to run a scan on your television to pick up channels in your current area. Once you do that, you shouldn't have any trouble picking up High Defanition quality local channels anywhere.

Thanks for chiming in RpodMan but I have already done this and still very snowy pictures. I think something is disconnected somewhere but I don't know how to access everything. |

Make sure the autoscan is set to AIR not CATV ... see the post over on the review section. Check the rear connection / cable and make sure it is secure.

I checked the cable again in the back and it was a little bit loose. I tightened it down and did my search again. The digital channels are coming in crystal clear now but the OTA channels are still snowy. Is this because the antenna doesn't recognize OTA and only recognized digital? Eventually the OTA channels are gong away anyway.
Thanks,
James

I didn't think my TV worked either, I did all the scans, setup right by the book and everything and then I checked the power button for the antenna and I received about 10 channels over the air. I'm in NC and this area has gone completely digital. Check you power button in the cabinet over the stove, there will also be a 12 volt power outlet beside it. Hope this works.
