Possible Pattern Noted by FCC: Double Rescan May be Needed
- Regarding reception & signal problems with high VHF channels, the FCC is trying to determine if there is a pattern nationwide. They have identified one potential solution that has been successful in solving the majority of problems for some stations — a “double rescan” the converter boxes. Here are the steps:
- Detach antenna
- Rescan converter box (to clear memory)
- Detach converter box power cord for 1 minute (to ensure that memory is clear)
- Reattach both power cord and antenna
- Rescan again
- FCC is considering issuing an advisory on this “double rescan” solution, but is trying to determine how to communicate this succinctly without creating more confusion(!).
