Blind scan?

VS U lite is a great little unit.
About the size of a paperback novel.

I can't figure out how to do a blind scan.

Re: Blind scan?

you can always try and rescan only the tps for the channels your missing. Either use lyngsat to find out the info or post the channels here and we can give you some of that info

Re: Blind scan?

Not sure,whatever came with my BV.

Also have a VS Ultra It is wide open. I did a blind scan with it.
I have duplicate channels but not really a big deal.
