When performing auto programming for channels i get most channels through cable but i am not getting the main channels 5 wral and 7. The voice says analog search channels. Others i get say digital.

Hello, Louisa -

See the transcript of the WRAL (NBC affiliate for central and eastern North Carolina) television broadcast entitled 7 Steps to Improve the Range of Your WiFi Signal, here:
http://www.wral.com/7-steps-to-improve-the-range-of-your-wifi-signal/17230480/

How did I find it? I used my favorite search engine, Google, and entered the following search phrase:
WRAL

Once on the WRAL home page,
http://www.wral.com/
I went to the Search box in the upper right corner of the page and entered WiFi and clicked on the magnifying glass icon.

The transcript for the broadcast on improving WiFi was the 3 entry in the search results.

How hard was that?

Best wishes.

I'm sorry for the difficulties you're experiencing in getting the few channels. I suggest that you unplug the TV to perform a power resetting and then perform auto programming to resolve the issue. Please let me know if the issue persists.

Unplug your television and turn the set around so the back of the set is facing you.

2 Disconnect the antenna or cable connection from the television's "VHF," "Antenna In" or similarly worded port if it is connected.

3 Examine your splitter and notice one end of the device has a coaxial port while the other end has two coaxial ports.

4 Plug the coaxial end of the television antenna into one of the two coaxial ports on the splitter.

5 Plug the coaxial cable coming from the cable television connection outlet into the second coaxial port on the splitter. Use the port next to the one you used to plug the television antenna into.

6 Place one end of a 2 foot piece of coaxial cable into the single coaxial port on the splitter.

7 Plug the other end of the 2 foot piece of coaxial cable into your television's "VHF," "Antenna In" or similarly worded port.

8 Plug in the television set and turn it around so the screen is facing you.

9 Use your television's remote control to access the "Menu," "Setup" or similarly worded function. Or press the "Menu" or "Setup" button on the front of the television.

10 Select the "Channel Setup" or similarly worded function. Set the Input to "Cable" and perform an "Auto Scan" to locate all available cable television channels.

11 Select the "Channel Setup" or similarly worded function, then set the input to "Antenna" and perform an "Auto Scan" to locate all available broadcast channels. Your television will locate both broadcast and cable television channels.

12 Scan the channels on your television to make sure all available channels have been found. If you are missing any channels that you know you should have, manually program the channels into your television using the "Channel Setup," "Manual Channel Setup" or similarly worded function.

I assume you have analog cable TV service and no cable box. Press MENU button on your TV remote. Go over to CHANNEL SETUP. There are four arrow buttons and a button in the middle of the arrow buttons on the TV remote control. Use these arrow buttons to go up, down, left and right. Use the button in the center to select. TV On-screen menu has Video, then Audio, then Channel Setup.

Cable can be set to ON or OFF, you want to set it ON to get cable channels.
Go down to AUTO PROGRAM and select it, press button in the center of arrow keys.
A short delay while available channels are searched so be patient. After Auto Program finishes, press MENU to exit. You can perform Auto Program whenever required.

You can also add or skip channels manually. You will discover more options in the TVs menus.

Hello
Do connection to the antena if you wants to set the TV auto tuned.
During this initial setup, you can perform the following:

1 Select the language for the on-screen display text.

Program

• If you have cable and antenna available, please connect cable first.

antenna is connected. If you cancel Auto Program before completion some channels may not be
available.

4 Auto Program will scan for available channels from the signal source directly connected to

the TV's CABLE/ANTENNA input and may take sometime to complete the process. Follow
the help text provided on the screen to run Auto Program.
