Try pressing and holding the power button until the TV shuts down, then turn it back on and do a channel search (scan) to load channels that are available and see if that works, good luck.
Hello, with the set on, press the menu button, move the cursor down till the "Tuner" section is hi-lighted, click on it. Then the first selection is "Tuner Mode" click on it, the choose "Antenna" click on it. Then move to the "Auto Channel Scan" and click on it, and let it set all your channels. when done, just exit menu and change channels as desired. you can go to page 39 in your manual for these instructions: Tuner Mode Select Cable or Antenna depending upon which equipment you have attached to the DTV / TV Input. Auto Channel Search Automatically search for TV channels that are available in your area. Be sure to first select the correct tuner mode above. The TV will search for analog and digital channels. When the search is done, press EXIT to begin watching your programs. thanks, Terry
You might have more than one transmitter. Some TV's etc only store a certain number of channels and have a max amount!. When weaker transmitters are present sometimes the memory of the TV will only store the stronger signals first from these weaker sites, with the two BBC channels being too weak to be detected. The solution is to do a manual search on the transmitters you know are very strong. For example if channel 43 has strong signal you would search on that. The auto search will start at 21 and work it's way to 69. But if your area transmitter with the strongest signals is high up the scale the weaker transmitters will be selected first!
It sounds like that the TV was set to skip certain channels. You need to rescan for channels or manually edit the channel list. To manually add channels, press Menu on the TV (or the equivalent key on the Sony remote if you found a code that works). Then use the Up/Down arrows (channel change keys) to select Ch Scan Memory + . Then enter the number of the channel (numerically or up and down arrows). Press + (volume + key) to change the setting from Deleted to Added or vice versa. Since you do not have the original remote, I'm not sure if the Sony remote will match the Reset key of the original remote. Unfortunately without that key being pressed twice, you can't reset the entire channel list and cause the channel search to begin automatically.
The manual for the DS19330 TV is here: http://www.sanyotv.com/DS19330%20%28ESF%29%203764--.pdf . (I'm assuming you haven't recently added cable after only receiving only OTA signals. If you have changed inputs like that, you need to go through the menu and change the source.) Menu > Cable or Air .
There isn't a tv signal on that coaxial cable. The other end of it is not connected to anything with an active signal. For example an indoor antenna, or an outdoor antenna, a cable TV company's active TV source (that you are payin for), or a satallite TV company that you are paying for them to turn on, also TV's do not have a built-in satallite tunner to tune in those sattallite channels, you have to use that company's external tunner box. No tunner box = no channels. Even U-Verse No Tunner Box = No TV.
Hi,
I can't say I've ever seen that happen with that TV before so I'd say it definitely isn't common. I'm pretty sure it's the signal from the HD channels, I'd suggest talking to your cable service provider.
