Manual Searching
NOTE:
Automatic searching (described above) is suitable in most cases. You might use
manual searching if you have deleted a channel and now want to access it again. In this
case, you would just search for that particular channel.
To avoid a fruitless search, you may want to check the strength and quality of the signal
beforehand. To do so, select
Signal Level
from the
Tools
menu and press
or
until the
channel and frequency of the broadcast you will be searching for appears on the screen.
The bars at the top of the screen indicate the strength and quality of the signal. Poor
strength or quality indicate that it may be difficult to scan for that channel or that the
reception might be too poor for you to comfortably watch the channel.
