I assume that since you can see the converter box menu that your TV is on the correct channel or input, but I'll ask anyway. Is your TV on the correct channel or input to receive TV channels from your converter box? What happens when you scan?
The more info you give the more likely you'll get useful responses.
It's on the correct channel 3. Thats the problem, it won't let me do anything, when I push any button (scan) on the remote control, nothing happens, I just have a blue screen.
Then make sure the TV is on the correct channel/input. Blue screen is usually a function of the TV when it isn't seeing any signal. That suggests it's on the wrong channel/input, or the converter box is off or has no power, etc.
I also cannot receive any local programs. Have done all requested......including channel set. PBS can get and hispanic channels.........that is it. So now what? All of a sudden local here in Tucson became difficult to get then nothing.....Have rescanned, unplugged all night, etc, etc, etc.........please assist. even attempted to change antenna local, nothing. Does this have anything to do with Cox Cable company? They are indeed agressive............
I'm having difficulty with my digital converter box and have been without TV for about three months.
When I run a scan it completes the first phase successfully but does not go into second phase, the one in which digital signals are picked up. Instead of going into the second phase it returns to the main screen, where I see the "No signal" disclaimer and "CH 2-1" in the upper corner.
I thought the problem might be my antenna so I've gone through two antennas (rabbit ears) and I'm currently using an RCA model 130 3GM flat multi-directional (no rabbit ears) with an inline amplifier.
Could the problem be in the box, and how would I troubleshoot it? BTW, I live in Columbia, SC and was getting an excellent signal since the analog/digital conversion using the current box and a dipole antenna. This problem started gradually about three months ago.
when they made the conversion 4 years ago i had the same problem. I was told i needed a digital antenna or the like. but by that time i just ordered basic cable so the problem was solved
My converter box stopped working. I have four dashes showing. And I don't have a remote to try and scan again
