WLRN-TV IS MOVING FREQUENCIES.  WHAT DOES THAT MEAN FOR YOU? 

As of April 1st 2019 WLRN-TV has moved frequencies to make room for wireless services. If you watch TV for free with an antenna, you will need to rescan your TV to keep watching WLRN-TV Channel 17.

Don’t worry – it’s simple and requires no new equipment or services. After the rescan is complete, you’ll still find us on Channel 26, and we will still deliver all the news, emergency updates and entertainment you rely on. If you subscribe to cable or satellite, you do not need to rescan. Your service provider will do it for you.

Rescanning is simple and can be done in three easy steps.  

  1. Locate your TV or converter box remote, press MENU
  2. Select SETUP - choose ANTENNA
  3. then CHANNEL SCAN or AUTO TUNE  - and your TV will do the rest.

For more detailed information on how to rescan your TV, visit TVAnswers.org.
