Many cable companies offer services permitting reception of extra channels including pay or subscription channels. This
DVD/VCR has an extended tuning range and can be tuned to most cable channels without using a cable company
supplied converter box, except for those premium channels which are intentionally scrambled. If you subscribe to a
premium channel which is scrambled, you must have a descrambler box for proper reception.

Allows: * Recording of nonscrambled channels.

* Use of the programmable timer.
* Recording of one channel while watching another.

Allows: * Recording of channels through the converter box

(scrambled and unscrambled).

* Using the programmable timer to record only the

channel selected at the converter box.

Prevents: * Recording one channel while watching another.

* Using the DVD/VCR tuner to select channels.
