After hooking up a converter box to your TV set, or installing a new digital television, you will need to scan (also known as "auto-tune") for new channels to ensure you receive all of the digital stations broadcasting in your area. While some boxes do this automatically, you may need to select scan manually.

Since some digital stations are still coming on air, you may want to consider rescanning on a periodic basis to get all of the digital programming available.

On February 17, 2009 WEEK will shut down the analog signal. This means if you receive TV signals over the air and do not have a TV with a digital tuner or a converter box, you may lose the WEEK signal at that time. Click on DTVanswers.com or contact WEEK at 309 698-2525 for information. On February 18th, WEEK also must change its digital channel to 25.1. Digital TV’s and converter boxes have a scanning feature that finds channels for you. All converter boxes and digital tuners will have to be re-scanned on February 18th to receive WEEK’s digital channel.
