I think it means Low Power broadcasters/stations, but i'm only taking a logical guess. stations that are NOT required to change,
Options, always have options, and the journey goes much smoother

Well, here in Fort Worth/Dallas area, it happen today. I did the rescan just for the heck of it,, no issues on either TV, only one has the box on it, the other turner when I bought it..
A lot of hype really it seems to me, The people complaining must have had their collective heads up Where the sun don't shine.

I'm going to post this snip I made on another thread because it's really important
--------------snip------------
Either wait, OR rescan your TV or converter box on Saturday morning to pick-up the stragglers!
The official end of analog may be tomorrow (now today), but there is no "set" time and stations will be moving transmission facilities all day and into early Saturday morning. So what you see at any given time tomorrow will likely not be final.
--------------snip------------
Facility upgrades are going to take many months, so re-scan regularly.

I turned on the TV in the camper today here at home and received 3 channels and I have had 9 in the past. This was with the box off so it was analog. I turned the box on and still had 14 digital that I had when I scanneda few months ago. I'm going to rescan tomorrow and see if I get any more.

On the cable system, how does BOTH analog and digital TV work right off the cable?

Now the conversion has happened, you should go into your TV's setup and "re-scan" as many stations have moved their signals to new frequencies.
If your TV is only getting one or two stations that keep repeating the instructions on how to hook up one of those set top converter boxes., you are seeing a "nitelight" station that will stay on another month.
While you re-scan it should show the digital stations it has found if it has an HD capability. If not time to get a new TV..

We were in Chattanooga this past week. Plenty of DTV. We have a Digital TV. Tuned to DTV Channel. It said Low Signal Strength and produced a crisp black screen. I keep hearing everyone say that the antenna is not important...but, maybe there is an amplifier or distribution system that is not passing the signal???there is a little green light where we plug the coax in the wall with an on off switch...no signal either way.
Rig is 06 Dutchman so it ought to be up to spec???
