Memorizing Channels Automatically
Using this process, your VCR will automatically memorize all of the
television stations available to you. You can later get rid of
unwanted or unused stations.
I
f your local cable company scrambles some or all stations,
and/or requires you to use a cable box, then your ability to
memorize channels would normally be limited. The cable
box receives all of your channels, then sends only one to
your TV and your VCR, usually on channel 3 or 4.
If your cable box or cable system seems incompatible
with your new VCR, call your cable company. They may
be able to provide solutions to your problems.
