Items in the Connections menu are: Signal Strength, Channel Search,Signal Source, Video Input Setup, Auto Tuning, and Special Features.Signal StrengthThis screen lists any antenna channel EVER added to the TV. The list shows thechannel number, the station name (only when tuned and available, e.g. NBC),whether the channel is digital or analog, which tuner is picking up the channel,and current signal strength of digital channels.When you move the highlight to the Signal Strength list, the TV attempts to tuneto that channel. You can then adjust your off-air antenna for maximum signalstrength (largest number) for the selected channel. The signal strength for adigital channel will be shown as “- -” until the signal is strong enough for use,then numbers will appear. Analog channels will always have the display,“N/A”, since analog signal strength is not measured.Only primary channels appear in the list. Cable channels and digitalsubchannels, e.g. 8-1, 8-2, do not appear.Note: If you have an antenna connected to the Antenna and CableInputs, press the ANT•CAB button to view your channels on the AntennaInput, or vice-versa.Channel SearchEngaging in a channel search tells the TV to search for all the TV channelsavailable through the Antenna and Cable inputs.
