screen properly. If you can, press the INFO key. If not, the unsupported resolution is turned off after
a few seconds. If you turn on Native mode, the receiver will automatically adjust resolution to match
the resolution of individual TV programs as they are tuned.

will see this screen near the end of Guided Setup. e receiver will use the ZIP code you enter on this
screen to determine what locally broadcast digital stations are available to you. Setting up a Secondary
Local Network is optional; it can be useful if you are located between two network areas and intend to
receive programming from both via your off -air antenna.
