They include:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">A Broken or Damaged Antenna<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>TVs use antennas to receive a signal that is then <strong>converted<\/strong> into the images and sounds you see and hear on your screen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The antenna intercepts <strong>radio waves<\/strong> from the <strong>TV stations<\/strong>, converts them to <strong>radio frequencies<\/strong>, and relays them to your TV&rsquo;s tuner. The antenna won&rsquo;t perform this process efficiently if damaged, causing channels to be lost.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Physical damage<\/strong> to the antennas or cables is the most common issue.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Longer Coaxial Cables<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Coaxial cables<\/strong> connect the antenna to the TV. Most people are unaware that the length of these cables can affect the TV&rsquo;s channels.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The efficiency of a coaxial cable is measured in <strong>power decibels<\/strong>, and it affects <strong>attenuation<\/strong> (the loss of signal quality).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The cable&rsquo;s length affects attenuation due to the varying conductance, resistance, and capacitance per unit length.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Coaxial cables over <strong>100 feet<\/strong> <strong>(30.48 meters)<\/strong> long can result in a significant <strong>loss of power<\/strong> and, eventually, channels.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Outdated Software<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Your TCL TV may lose channels if you use outdated software.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Software updates<\/strong> are essential since they improve a TV&rsquo;s performance, add features, and patch security holes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When new <strong>channel frequencies<\/strong> or formats are introduced in your area, they will not be compatible with the old versions. As a result, you will lose access to those channels.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Faulty or Loose Cables<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Cables play a significant role in ensuring you get clear pictures and sound quality. They also provide sufficient power input to the TV for efficient functioning.<\/p><p><i>Gizmo Geek Guide posted this on May 25, 2023 as the original owner of this article.<\/i><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Power and body cables work together for the proper functioning of a TV. If any of these are <strong>damaged or loose<\/strong>, they will cause the TV to malfunction, including losing channels.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Poor Antenna Placement<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Your antenna placement position is essential if you want to receive channels.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If the antenna is not placed in an <strong>unobstructed path<\/strong> between it and the <strong>broadcast towers<\/strong>, you will experience a weak signal, causing your TV to lose channels.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Moreover, objects, especially metal ones, can interfere with <strong>signal propagation<\/strong>. The signals will be <strong>scattered or absorbed<\/strong>, making it difficult for your TV to receive them. These objects include metal fences, buildings, and trees.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Even your <strong>antenna&rsquo;s direction<\/strong> can affect its ability to receive signals from broadcast towers.<\/p><p><i>Gizmo Geek Guide uploaded this as an original article on May 25, 2023.<\/i><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Fixes for a TCL TV That Loses Channels<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"640\" height=\"427\" src=\"https:\/\/gizmogeekguide.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/GGG-TCL-TV-Losing-Channels-3.jpg\" alt=\"Using remote to browse through TV installed apps\" class=\"wp-image-2673\" srcset=\"https:\/\/gizmogeekguide.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/GGG-TCL-TV-Losing-Channels-3.jpg 640w, https:\/\/gizmogeekguide.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/GGG-TCL-TV-Losing-Channels-3-300x200.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\"><\/noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"640\" height=\"427\" src=\"https:\/\/gizmogeekguide.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/GGG-TCL-TV-Losing-Channels-3.jpg\" alt=\"Using remote to browse through TV installed apps\" class=\"wp-image-2673 lazyload\" srcset=\"https:\/\/gizmogeekguide.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/GGG-TCL-TV-Losing-Channels-3.jpg 640w, https:\/\/gizmogeekguide.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/GGG-TCL-TV-Losing-Channels-3-300x200.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" data-pin-media=\"https:\/\/gizmogeekguide.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/GGG-TCL-TV-Losing-Channels-3.jpg\" id=\"mv-trellis-img-3\" data-trellis-processed=\"1\"><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Now that you know some of the reasons your TCL TV may lose channels, here are the ways to fix the issue:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">1. Check and Repair the Antenna<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Your TV&rsquo;s antenna can get damaged by strong winds, thunderstorms, or even birds. To check if your antenna is the problem, do a <strong>visual inspection<\/strong> to see if there is any physical damage. It would be best to <strong>replace the antenna<\/strong> with a new one if you spot any damage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You should also check the antenna <strong>cords, cables, and wires<\/strong> to see if they are <strong>split or bent<\/strong>. Split or bent cables interfere with signal propagation from the antenna to the TV. You should <strong>replace any split cables<\/strong> for efficient signal propagation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Moreover, ensure all cables are <strong>tight<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">2. Rescan the Channels<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Rescanning the channels helps you <strong>locate all the channels in your region<\/strong>, including the ones lost on the TV.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here is the procedure to <a href=\"https:\/\/support.tcl.com\/us-androidtv-setup-configuration\/how-to-scan-for-antenna-tv-channels-on-my-tcl-android-tv\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">scan for channels<\/a> on TCL TV:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol>\n<li>Hover over the antenna TV icon on your TV&rsquo;s home screen.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Press the asterisk (*) button on the remote.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Navigate to &ldquo;Scan for Channels.&rdquo;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Click &ldquo;Ok.&rdquo;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Navigate to &ldquo;Start Finding Channels.&rdquo;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Click &ldquo;No, Channels 3 and 4 are not needed.&rdquo;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Wait for the scan to end.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The TV will display the number of channels found.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Click &ldquo;Done.&rdquo;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Check to see whether the lost channels have been restored.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">3. Update Your TCL TV<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"640\" height=\"427\" src=\"https:\/\/gizmogeekguide.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/GGG-TCL-TV-Losing-Channels-4.jpg\" alt=\"Updating TV software\" class=\"wp-image-2674\" srcset=\"https:\/\/gizmogeekguide.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/GGG-TCL-TV-Losing-Channels-4.jpg 640w, https:\/\/gizmogeekguide.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/GGG-TCL-TV-Losing-Channels-4-300x200.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\"><\/noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"640\" height=\"427\" src=\"https:\/\/gizmogeekguide.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/GGG-TCL-TV-Losing-Channels-4.jpg\" alt=\"Updating TV software\" class=\"wp-image-2674 lazyload\" srcset=\"https:\/\/gizmogeekguide.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/GGG-TCL-TV-Losing-Channels-4.jpg 640w, https:\/\/gizmogeekguide.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/GGG-TCL-TV-Losing-Channels-4-300x200.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" data-pin-media=\"https:\/\/gizmogeekguide.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/GGG-TCL-TV-Losing-Channels-4.jpg\" id=\"mv-trellis-img-4\" data-trellis-processed=\"1\"><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>An <strong>update<\/strong> will help solve the problem if your TV is losing channels due to <strong>outdated software<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here is the procedure to update a TCL TV:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol>\n<li>Press the &ldquo;Home&rdquo; button on the remote.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Scroll to &ldquo;Settings.&rdquo;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Scroll to the &ldquo;Systems&rdquo; option.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Select &ldquo;System Update.&rdquo;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Click &ldquo;Check Now&rdquo; to check for pending updates.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Install any pending updates and restart the TV.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">4. Measure and Adjust Your Coaxial Cable&rsquo;s Length<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>A longer coaxial cable causes more signal interference that may make the TV lose some channels.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To check the coaxial cable&rsquo;s length:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol>\n<li>Measure the distance from your TV to the antenna.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Check the specification of your coaxial cable to see how long it should be.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>If it is longer than necessary, mostly <strong>100 feet<\/strong> <strong>(30.48 meters),<\/strong> cut off the excess using a pair of scissors and screw on a new end.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p>Alternatively, you can <strong>relocate the TV<\/strong> to a closer spot that doesn&rsquo;t need a longer coaxial cable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">5. Check and Adjust the Antenna Placement<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The antenna should be in a <strong>clear line <\/strong>between it and the broadcast towers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You can <strong>use a map<\/strong> to find out where the broadcast towers are in your region.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Once you know where they are, place the antenna <strong>as high up as possible<\/strong>, preferably on the roof or near a window. There should be <strong>no obstructions<\/strong> like trees between the antenna and the tower.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You can also <strong>use a reflector<\/strong> to amplify the signal if you&rsquo;re far from the broadcast towers. A reflector is a device that helps direct the signals to the antenna.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Final Thoughts<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The antenna is the main reason a TCL TV may lose channels. You should check your TV&rsquo;s antenna to ensure it&rsquo;s in a clear location without obstructions. It should also not have any damage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Related Articles<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/gizmogeekguide.com\/prime-video-not-working-on-tcl-tv-ggg-15\/\">Prime Video Not Working on TCL TV<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/gizmogeekguide.com\/tcl-tv-volume-stuck-too-loud-or-too-low-ggg-15\/\">TCL TV Volume Stuck, Too Loud or Too Low<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/gizmogeekguide.com\/disney-plus-not-working-on-tcl-tv-ggg-15\/\">Disney Plus Not Working on TCL TV<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/gizmogeekguide.com\/tcl-tv-light-blinking-ggg-15\/\">TCL TV Light Blinking<\/a><\/p><p><i>Gizmo Geek Guide published this original article on May 25, 2023.<\/i><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/gizmogeekguide.com\/tcl-tv-horizontal-lines-on-screen-ggg-15\/\">TCL TV Horizontal Lines on Screen<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Have you just turned on your TCL TV only to find a bunch of channels missing?
