WBBZ recently added new channels that are only available on-the-air, including START; Decades; and MOVIES!<\/p>\n

If you watch us with an antenna, you will need to re-scan your TV to see them.<\/p>\n

If you watch us on Cable, FiOS, Dish, or DirecTV, you will continue to get WBBZ-TV Ch67.1, but not our other new channels.<\/p>\n

Here is what the over-the-air only Digital Dash Channel lineup will carry ( which has been slightly changed)<\/p>\n

MeTV & Local Programming Ch67.1
\nHeroes & Icons Ch67.2
\nMeTV (24 hours a day) Ch67.3
\nDaystar Religious Ch67.4
\nDABL Lifestyle Network Ch67.5
\nSTART TV ( women’s focused programming) Ch67.6
\nDecades! ( talk, variety, documentaries0 Ch67.7
\nMOVIES! ( lots of them! ) Ch67.8<\/p>\n

As a result you will have to rescan your TV connected to your antenna. Re-scanning (or scanning) for channels is mostly an automated process. All you have to do set that process in motion through a few simple steps. And while these steps are different for each TV, the process is pretty similar on every TV out there.<\/p>\n

Make sure your TV is connected to an antenna.<\/p>\n

Press the \u201cMenu\u201d button on your remote control. If you don\u2019t have a remote, your TV should have a built-in \u201cMenu\u201d button.
\nFind and select the \u201cChannel Scan\u201d option in your TV\u2019s menu. This option is sometimes labeled \u201cRescan,\u201d \u201cTune,\u201d or \u201cAuto-tune.\u201d<\/p>\n

If you can\u2019t find the \u201cChannel Scan\u201d option, dig through the TV\u2019s \u201cSettings,\u201d \u201cTools,\u201d \u201cChannels,\u201d or \u201cOptions\u201d menu. On some TVs, you have to press the \u201cInput\u201d button and go to \u201cAntenna.\u201d<\/p>\n

Once your TV starts scanning for channels, find something to do. Channel scanning can take upwards of 10 minutes.
\nWhen scanning is complete, your TV will either display how many channels are available or drop you back into a broadcast.<\/p>\n

Still missing some channels? Try running another scan, or you may need to move your antenna for better reception, too.<\/p>\n

If you\u2019re having trouble finding the \u201cChannel Scan\u201d option on your TV, then it\u2019s time to consult the manual. You can usually find a manual by searching the web for the TV\u2019s make and model along with the word \u201cmanual.\u201d<\/p>\n
