Los Angeles California area Off Air Channel Assignments

If after the DTV transition you noticed a fuzzy picture on in-house modulated channels (Such as Cameras), We can help. The best suggestion is to have us install a trap that blocks out 52-69 (since they will no longer be used for TV, but instead will be used by other commercial interests) and change the modulator settings of  your channels in to these slots.

If you do not want to insert a trap, and you are looking for an empty slot to modulate an in house channel, see the chart below. Based upon this chart, it looks like the best slots to move to (that are non adjacent to planned Digital TV station carrier) are UHF 15, 16, 20, 21 & 45. If you have filled up those channels, the next locations (adjacent to digital channels) are VHF 8, 10, 12 or UHF 14, 17, 25, 27, 30, 33, 37, 40, 44, 46 & 50.

Channels 2-6 will no longer be used by TV stations and instead will be used for emergency communications.
