A:Answer If you are NOT using cable-TV, and are only watching over the air TV channels (ABC, NBC, CBS, PBS, Fox and other independents), you need to go into the on-screen menu and run a scan of the available local TV stations that can be received in your area, The TV will lock in any broadcasting channels that it detects during the set-up scan, and will block out any vacant channels, so you will only see operating channels and no channels with static.
