IF YOU HAVE A VCR:

A number of our subscribers have a VCR between the incoming cable signal and their televisions.  Here are some things to watch out for when using two of the basic functions of your VCR:

VCR AS A TUNING/PLAYBACK DEVICE:

In this case, the VCR controls what you see on the TV by tuning in our signal.  Make sure the TV/VCR selection is set to the "VCR" mode and your TV is on either channel 3 or 4 (depending on the VCR's setting).  If you then do not have a picture, try playing a pre-recorded videocassette.  If the recording does not display, there is possibly a problem with the VCR.  If the VCR will play a tape, but you are still not receiving our cable signal, call our office.

VCR PASSING THE CABLE SIGNAL:

Sometimes you may want to use a cable-ready television to tune in our channels.  To view our cable signal at the set while the VCR is on, check to make sure that your VCR's TV/VCR selection is set to the "TV" mode (Please refer to your Owner/Operator manual).  Also, most VCR power cords must be plugged in to allow our cable signal to reach your television, even when the VCR is not use.
