Problems getting freeview on Samsung R88

Hi
Have recently bought a Samsung 19" R88 tv and it won't find any freeview channels. Have tried it in main tv aerial (in which we have a 37" R88) and still nothing. Followed instructions and nothing. Any ideas please.
Thanks:confused:

    So theyre the same tvs except for the size?
    Assuming youve set it the same as the larger tv, sounds to me like its knackered.
    Some tvs have 2 aerial inputs. One for freeview, one for analogue. You sure you have it in the correct one?

  • Thanks for reply.
    There is only 1 aerial socket.
    Have googled it and have found a few people with the same question and problem but no answers. Which is why I think I may be doing something wrong.
    Think will have to call Samsung!!

    Ive had a quick look at the manual
    It says that DTV needs to have its country set seperate to everything else before it will scan
    :idea:
