Check the orientation of the antenna. If the transmitter you're trying to tune is very far away from your home, the signals will be very weak, that the tuner inside the TV can't catch. If this is the case, the orientation of the antenna is very important.
You can buy antenna's that will extend the range of your wifi signal. Go to www.ebay.com Type: wifi extender, wifi antenna, and wifi range one of these should give you what you need.
How far away is the CBS station? Are there any obstacles that would block the signal (say new construction)?
What channels do antennaweb.org or tvfool.com suggest you will get from your location? (Antennaweb is more conservative and assumes an outdoor antenna.) Do you need to rotate your antenna to get one transmitter or the other? Indoor antennas are more likely to get interference and direction issues.
You may want to restore your TV to the default and then rescan the channels. (This may or may not help. It usually helps more with scrambled information than lost channels.)
I hope this helps.
Cindy Wells (good luck. I've had issues with my CBS and Fox affiliates (sharing a transmitter location). At first it was clearly my TV and the reset helped. Now I have no clue as to the cause - the external TV antenna gives a strong signal on the other TV. The problem TV says the signal is bad and this is the closest transmitter and antennaweb says I should get it easily. Even pointing the antenna straight at the transmitter doesn't help.)
You live too far away from the stations transmitters. In this case,you need an outdoor ant. to do the job.(roof top).I live in Orlando area and I get 35+ channels.
Weak signal problem can be fixed by firmware update however, if the client computer is too far from the router, it can't be helped. What you need is a wireless range expander. What it does is give you another 100% signal or atleast stronger signal to the spot or area where you have a weak or dead signal.
