Important Notice for TV Customers Without a Converter Box

During the night of August 11-12, we will be performing channel maintenance that will affect our QAM tuner lineup. If you use a TV without a converter box or CableCARDTM you will need to rescan your TV on the morning of Wednesday, August 12 in order to receive channels.

Customers using TV sets with a converter box or CableCARDTM do not need to do anything.

Please take a few minutes now to review the scanning process for your TV set. Information on performing a channel scan can be found in the owner’s manual for your TV set. These changes will be made in the late night hours of August 11-12 so please do not perform a channel scan until after 7 AM on August 12. This is necessary for customers that use a TV without a converter box or CableCARDTM. We apologize for the inconvenience.

After these changes are made, some channel positions will change. Please download a new QAM tuner lineup.

MCTV is the only provider that allows viewers to use their TV set without some type of converter box. We also provide a channel lineup and on-screen channel labels. Other providers do not do this.

We made the decision to do this to allow our customers the option of not using a converter box. However, the downside to this is that, periodically, you will have to rescan your TV to receive channels. We limit the changes we make to keep rescanning to a minimum and have not required a rescan since August 2012. From time to time though, we must make changes. We have converter boxes of various types that will eliminate the need for future rescans.
