Having Issues With Your TV Reception?

Has your TV reception started playing up? From pixelating, image freezing or loss of channels? If you are not getting any channels on your TV there could be simple reasons that you can evaluate before calling the experts.

  • Ensure your TV and power cables are connected to the wall sockets as well as the TV
  • Try to perform an auto or manual scan for TV Channels (refer back to your TV’s owner manual)
  • If you do have an amplifier in your system ensure the power supply is plugged in and turned on
