Cannot display cable
channels
If you connected the Digital Home Receiver to your TV with an RF connection
(as described on page 9) you need to tune your TV to channel 3 in order to see
cable channels.
If you connected the Digital Home Receiver to your VCR with an RF connection
(as described on page 10) you need to set your VCR’s RF channel switch
(usually on the rear panel) to channel 3 in order to see cable channels.
If channel 3 is not an empty channel in your channel line-up, you can set the TV
or VCR to channel 4, but you must also change the Digital Home Receiver’s RF
channel to channel 4 in order to see cable channels. For details see, “Changing
the Digital Home Receiver’s RF Output Channel” on page 12.
