If rescanning doesn't help, you may need to double scan.Įveryone can use a converter box in an emergency even if you have cable or satellite!

If you run a channel scan and are still having difficulty, we recommend you use the DTV Coverage Map to see what stations you should be receiving in your area. Once the scan is complete, you should be receiving digital channels through your antenna or rabbit ears. Consult the owner’s manual for more detailed instructions on how to run a channel scan.

Run the 'scan' function on your converter box, usually on the remote control, labeled 'set-up' or 'menu' or some similar term. You should rescan on a periodic basis to get all of the digital programming available. While some boxes do this automatically, you may need to select scan manually. Re-scanning : After hooking up a converter box to your analog TV set, you will need to scan (also known as 'auto-tune') for new channels to ensure you receive all of the digital stations broadcasting in your area.
