Programming Channels I bought a used Mitsubshi Model #WS-73905, and I can't get the channels to work past channel 14. I have satelite which allows me to have cable up to 124 channels. Can some1 PLEASE help me figure this one out.

Call your cable provider and tell them to give you a new box.

If you have just an air antenna and your tv is set for cable and not air, you will not pickup any channels past 13.

I don't know the exact step to set it because I don't know you model TV. When you go to menu set channels it should give you the option to choose cable or air. If you pick cable all your channels will be in VHF which is what you want. If you pick air the first 13 channels will be VHF and the rest will be UHF which cable don't work on. After you pick cable then auto program and you should get all your channels.If this helps you and I hope it does give me a vote please.

The answer to this question can get a little complicated. Lets tackle it in two parts. First the last part; the part about picking up channels as decimals. With analog TV transmission, it took the full television broadcast channel to transmit one standard definition TV program. The newer digital transmission system uses some advanced video compression and audio compression technology to reduce the data needed to transmit the pictures and sound which allows the same bandwidth to deliver either High Definition Television programming or MULTIPLE channels of Standard Definition programs. So in your example above, you use to watch one channel of programming on TV channel 4, but now the TV station can broadcast multiple channels of programming on channel 4, sot they delineate the programs with a decimal point. So 4.1 it the first program on TV channel 4, 4.2 it the second program on TV channel 4..... Well, I hope you get the idea.

Now for the hard part of your question. I believe that before the transition, even with your new digital TV, you were still enjoying the analog broadcasts from your stations. Your VCR picked them up and recorded them and your digital TV could tune them in and you watched as you had always done in the past. After the transition you noticed that your VCR could not record anymore and your digital TV had discovered the digital channels that replace the analog channels. To remedy this situation, your VCR will need the aid of a DTV converter box to tune channels, and you may have to reconfigure the way your TV and VCR are connected. The best resource that I can give your for the reconnecting is the website http://www.fcc.gov/cgb/consumerfacts/converterbox_vcr.html.

Hope this helps

very sorry for that but you can be changing channel manually on the tv channel buttons, if you sweep on all channels you can go to AV from RF channels, that is before you buy a remote.

try to buy your remote from

www.ebay.com

Make sure in the menu that you have the tuner set to Cable Mode, then auto program again. Hope this helps.

Go into your menu and make sure the tuner is on Cable, then auto-program....Let me know?

It may be a problem in the TV but can also be caused by a poor RF connection either at the back of the TV or the satelite receiver. That of course would not be an issue if you are connecting your satelite via a composite or component or HDMI input.

select cable as a source not broadcast its looking for UHF channels instead of cable up to say 100. go to setup select cable not antennea or broadcast. do a scan afterwards and ghave it find your channels

Do you mean the channels from the internal tuner which would be channels 22 to 68, or do you mean satelite channels, as I do not know whether this set has a built in satelite receiver? Satelite broadcasters are often changing frequencies or satelites.- Programs come and go!
