    ty I am 76 years of age and did not grow up in the computer era and find so many on utbube talk too much, too fast and "assume" everyone knows the starting base when they want to learn something. I wanted to retune an old tv and did not know which buttons to push to do it. I found it all so easy after watching your video....a big hug and thank you !!

    I messed around w/remote and ended up w/no signal and back on cable. Don't know how it did it. I was depressed and about to call someone. But I found your channel. And you jogged my memory. Went to tv and got it back on antenna. Thank you so much! (I'd never even think of going back to cable, I get 58 channels over the air, been off cable for 4 years now). Thanks again!

    Thanks so much for your video. It helps me so much to set up the antenna. When I set up the antenna, somehow I can only get 3 channels. I intend to return the antenna. I even asked the Antenna company for help. They told me to "scan" the chanel without further explanation. With your video, you showed very clearly how to scan. Now I have 97 channels. Thanks so much for your great help.

    In videos like this it truly helps those that do not understand the latest connections. This is a very informative video and the young gentleman has taken the time to show and talk about this and help those to understand the processes. I want to also commend him for the safety reminder of not connecting these while there is lightning outside. Great job. I would like to say only that you would still need a channel converter to pick up clear wave TV stations in most cases. It is true that the Federal Government made the TV stations go to digital, however after a movement or outcry to the Government representatives by those that could not afford the newer Digital TV's, it was a popular thing back in about 2005 that the government would give these converters free to those that could prove they were poor. After that was saturated from the give away, the converters were bought by hundreds at pennies on the dollar, then resold over Amazon, e-Bay and channels like that for a clear profit but still holding the prices down. These were needed to receive the clear wave digital TV signals that had been mandated by the Federal Government to reverse course a little bit and have the TV stations that had switched to Digital, to now send clear wave digital signals for those converters to pick up their signals. Most places can now get usually 6-15 stations, depending on terrain, etc. So this is the rest of the story! Now everyone can enjoy clear wave digital TV channels.

Finally decided to do the factory reset which made me nervous, but come to find out many of these TV's are for store use so the factory reset can set for home use. Voila, it then could be set to scan, thank goodness!

(3) We posted a different video to show you how to set up a digital converter box. Let us know if you want more help and thanks for watching

    Hello Ms. Jenkins. We looked at the specs of 4 current Element 32" flat screen TVs, all 4 had the proper tuner already built in. Based on this information we believe in all likelihood your TV does "not" need a converter box receive Over the air broadcast tv because we believe your tv probably already has the tuner built in. If you know the exact model # we can tell you for certain. Thanks for watching and feel free to post other questions you may have.
