Big Dave2 4,216 Posted December 12, 2017 Share Posted December 12, 2017 I have a question for all of you AV wizards out there. In my house I have 4 or 5 flat screen TV's connected directly to Mediacon cable. No cable box. The only problem to this is my channels are digital channels so Fox 9 is actually on 9.9 and ESPN is on 66.5, etc. I just recently acquired an older flat screen tv for my garage from a friend who didn't want it anymore. It is about 10 years old. When I hook it up to cable and try to run the auto programming feature it doesn't find anything. Could that TV just be too old to do what I am asking? I can get a cable box from Mediacom but I'm trying to avoid that. Any ideas? Link to post Share on other sites
Big Dave2 4,216 Posted December 12, 2017 Author Share Posted December 12, 2017 Just found online while doing more researching that this TV does not have a QAM tuner. Does anyone know if this could be the issue? Link to post Share on other sites
Big Dave2 4,216 Posted December 12, 2017 Author Share Posted December 12, 2017 I think I answered my own question. Looks like I need a cable box from Mediacom to operate this particular TV. Link to post Share on other sites
