Re: Roku TV not showing antennae channels in live TV

Why do we have to do a system reset every time we turn the TV on in order to get the attena channels? 
I am really not liking this TV.

Re: Roku TV not showing antennae channels in live TV

Hi, @CarolineWM

Welcome to the Roku Community.

We see that you need assistance setting up your Antenna on your Roku TV, and we'd be glad to help. A Roku TV is equipped with an ATSC tuner that provides access to digital “over-the-air” broadcast television. These channels can be accessed via an HDTV antenna connected to the Antenna TV input on your Roku TV.

Connecting to an HDTV antenna

Depending on where you live, you may be able to receive free “over-the-air” TV broadcasts from nearby TV stations using an HDTV antenna.

To access “over-the-air” broadcast television, the HDTV antenna must be connected to the Antenna TV input of your Roku TV.

  1. Connect the coaxial cable from your HDTV antenna to the “Ant/Cable In” connector on the back of your Roku TV.
  2. Turn on your Roku TV, go to Home and select Antenna TV. If Antenna TV is missing, you can add it by going to Settings > TV inputs > Antenna TV > Set up input.
  3. Follow the instructions on the TV screen to complete the setup.
  • Note: The placement of the HDTV antenna can affect which TV stations you may be able to receive and the quality of the TV signal. It is normal for the initial channel scan to take a while.

For more information, you can visit this support article on How to set up the Antenna TV input on your Roku TV™

We hope you find this information useful, and let us know if you have further concerns on inquiries.

Best wishes,
Kash
