Auto Search on the SETUP Menu
will
detect all the
active channels available in your area. It stores them in a
"channel
scan list."
This
is the list of channels that the
TV
will
recall (in numeric order) when the CHANNEL
Up or Down controls are operated.
The FA V. (Favorite) CHANNEL feature allows you to
customize this list of active channels to:
• Delete weak or "marginal" channels. Some channels
may be strong enough to be detected by Auto Search
but deliver poor picture quality.
• Store weak or "marginal" channels. Some channels
may be too weak to be detected by Auto Search but
strong enough to deliver a picture satisfactory to you.
• Save channels that may not have been broadcasting
when you used the Auto Search feature. Some
channels in your area (especially Public Television and
some Cable-TV stations) may not broadcast 24 hours
a day.
