Hi.
I spend most of my on-line time on tractor forums - so I am completely out of my depth here, but after a week of searching the 'net (including this forum) I am baffled
Last year we were given the above plasma tv, hooked it up to Shaw satellite - all good, no problems. We have a local TV Society broadcasting 5 digital channels so we decided to buy an antenna and hook up. Tested the antenna direction with our 2009 Toshiba flat-screen, worked great. Connected the antenna to the Panasonic, did a scan, it found the channels but, after pressing OK to accept, they disappear. I checked the firmware version and found it had never been updated from new. Managed to find a 1 gig SD card and updated to the latest version, but no change - a scan finds the channels but they disappear. Decided that the antenna was too close to the satellite dish so it was moved higher on the other end of the roof - same problem. I've studied the manual cover to cover and checked every setting - am I missing something?
If this problem can't be fixed, is there some magic device I can use to communicate with the antenna then output to the TV's input?
Thank you in advance. Cheers!
