Question posted by dwpadgett56 on September 3rd, 2014
My Bose Remote Rc38t1-27 Is Not Working On All Channels.
Channel 24 will not come on if picked from the guide or if number typed in or if I scroll to it. It gives a blank screen with a circle and a slash through it. Its not the station because it comes on on my other TVA. What do I need to do and what does that circle mean?
