Default Vcr vs converter box
I can get channel 31.4 on my JVC vcr, however if I use my converter box I can only get 31.1. Why? How can I get 31.4 on my converter box?

1. Disconnect your antenna wire from the converter box.
2. Go into the box's menu and run setup or autoscan.
3. When the scan finishes, reconnect the antenna and scan one more time.
