LG TV - How to Remove Duplicate Channels

  • Troubleshooting

At a Glance

Digital broadcasting services have two types of channels: physical (e.g., channel #7) and virtual channels (e.g., 7-1, 7-2, 7-3,...). This channel composition strategy ensures anybody can access the same channels wherever they are in the country. If you have an extra digital antenna connected to your TV for additional channels, you may have some duplicated channels (e.g., two or more channels numbered as 6-1).
