After the conversion to the new CBT Digital Cable, you may have noticed that duplicate channels have been removed. Previously, some channels were available on their Standard and HD Channel numbers. Now that we are all digital, the HD version of those stations has migrated to their Standard number.
Examples: KTIV which was previously on Channels 4 and 39.01 is now only on Channel 4 in its HD version. ESPN which was previously on Channels 32 and 82.2 is now only on Channel 32 as HD.
The updated Silver Channel Lineup is available in printable PDF format here. https://wp.me/a6YWnH-Un
You can essentially cross off Channels 39.01, 39.13, 41.13, 41.30, 42.03, 42.13, 82.2 and 82.12 from existing Channel Lineups.
If you are still having issues receiving all channels on your TV, please unplug your TV, plug it back in, and perform a new channel scan.
