Channel Out of Sequence or Channel Skip without Cox Digital Receiver
Verify that the "channel 3/4" switch on the back of the VCR is on channel 4. If the TV or VCR has a programmable channel selector, go through the programming procedures in the operation manual. Note that some TV's or VCR's will not program scrambled channels.
TV Does Not Receive All Cable Channels
If the TV or VCR is cable-ready, there will be a switch or menu selection for "TV/ CATV." Note that sometimes the "TV/CATV" mode is selected via the TV's remote and not on the TV itself. Also, some remotes operate via a "Menu", and the menu must be used to access "TV/CATV" selection.
If there is a "TV/CATV" switch or selection method, select "CATV".
If you do not have a cable-ready TV, you must have a Cox Digital receiver to watch all of the cable TV channels. You have the option of obtaining a unit at a Cox cable customer service center or having a Cox cable customer service representative schedule you for an Upgrade appointment.
If you still cannot receive all of the cable channels, contact the Cox cable customer service center.

Let me start by saying Cox is top of the line. Their 24 hour support has helped me many times over the years. No matter how hard to figure out what was going on, they made sure I was completely satisfied before getting off the phone. This goes for the cable and internet service. Thanks again Cox!!!

We love Cox on demand movies. The price is the same as any video store and with the price of gas these days it saves that trip to the video store.

I love my Cox services. I have digital cable, phone and high speed internet. I have been pleasantly suprised at how rarely the cable or internet goes out. The internet is very fast which I love:) It makes doing business, playing games or surfing the web, easy and enjoyable. Thank you Cox.

I love Cox Cable and the DVR service is the BEST! Program it once and never miss a show. We moved last year and the Cox guy worked with me to ensure that I kept my same box so I would not have to reprogram a new one with all the shows. Seems like a small thing but everyone in the family was happy the transition was so easy! Julie A. Williamsburg, VA
I highly recommend that all Cox high speed internet users take advantage of the new McAfee security package... McAfee Security has excellent features and runs in the background without slowing down your computer operating system.
