I have switched a smaller tv/vcr combo out for my other work monitor, because I needed it for work. Now the smaller tv will not go up to channel 73, it stops at 69 and I can't get it to view the satellite. I have the dual tuner in the living room. This one is connected via coax in my bedroom. Any suggestions/workarounds for a TV that won't go past channel 69? How do I get it to recognize the coax/satellite? Thank you!
 
couple options

-change the output channel on tuner 2 to something else
-change on the TV from antenna to cable. Cable goes up to 125 but in theory cable 73 is antenna 22 (I think...lemme see....74 is 23 and 80 is 29 so yeah 73 is antenna 22...learned that years ago when I scanned a cable ready TV on antenna and saw 68,74 & 80 instead of 17,23,29)
 
Thank you! Perfect.

Changed the tuner to channel 60 air and the tv to channel 60 and badabing, badaboom, I can see it again! Thank you!
