Can't install my local PBS

Jump to solution

I have tried several times to install my local PBS station, (Lakeland PBS in Bemidji, Mn.) The PBS in Duluth keeps getting installed. How can I get Lakeland PBS. I've had it before and accidentally removed it. Now can't get it back. Thank you.

If your internet provider assigns you an IP number that misrepresents your location, or if you live in an area like I do where there is overlapping coverage from multiple PBS stations, this can happen.

From within the PBS app:

  • Click left-cursor to activate menu down left side of screen.
  • Click icon at bottom to go to your profile.
  • Click "Change Station".
  • If it gives you the choice of the station you want on right side of screen, click on it.  Otherwise, enter your zip code to see what channels they offer.
