SOURCE: cannot keep all channels on tv

When you say you "lose" channels, you probably mean there's no signal there anymore but they are still in the channel memory. This is normal if you have a rotatable antenna. You need to mark the rotator (or just keep a chart nearby) with the heading for each channel.

If you mean you're losing channels from memory when rescanning after turning the antenna, the only solution I can offer is to record the channels found (and their signal levels) after scanning a direction. Then change directions and rescan. See what new channels have been found, what have been lost, or how signal level has changed on common channels. Then you can manually add whatever you need, and you'll know what direction is best for each. It's tedious, but you should only need to do it once.

SOURCE: Converter Box Problem

That just means that stations you can't pick up while the box is on are not broadcasting digital signals yet. Most will be after February.

SOURCE: tv as of sun night says no signal....converter box was working

Re scan your channels. Analog is gone and alot of channels have moved. Just re-run the setup on your converter and it should be fine. The channel numbers may change, but the programming hasn't. Hope this helps

I bought the magnavox and all my channels are

Check the converter box. Many have a volume setting that is usually set very low at the factory. On the remote control for the converter check to see if there are volume buttons. If so, change the converter box volume higher, to a level that makes the TV audio level "normal", then use the volume control on the TV for adjustment as you watch. If you set the volume on the converter box too high, you may get some distortion in the audio from your TV. So adjust the converter box to find the proper output from your TV without distortion.
