телевизор не находит цифровые каналы
The Grundig VLE 7131 BF TV may not be finding digital channels due to one or more of the following reasons:
1. The antenna cable is not connected properly to the "ANT-IN" socket.
2. The source is not set correctly; it should be set to "Air" or "Cable" depending on the signal type.
3. The automatic channel search was not completed or was aborted.
4. The TV is not receiving a strong enough signal; the antenna or its position may need adjustment.
5. The TV may not be compatible with certain future digital standards, though it supports current DVB-T and DVB-C standards.
To resolve the issue, check the antenna connection, ensure the correct source is selected, and run the automatic channel search to scan for available digital channels.
