Standalone Tivo Preprogrammed Channels

[Guest]

I have two Philips, Models 312 and 212, standalone Tivo's.

I want to use like VCR's, recording from dual receiver, Dish Sat Co-ax
on channel 3 and channel 22.

In the program lineup, already installed on the Tivo's, there is only
one Ant channel, which is Sat 1 channel 3. I can record to one Tivo
on channel 3. However, channel 22 is shown to be WCTC, and when I try
to use it, no signal comes from Sat 2. If I route the Sat output to
Channel 22 on VCR, I can record through VCR onto Tivo Channel 3, but
lose signal quality in VCR.

Is there any way I can add another antenna channel, channel 22, to
the Tivo?

Thanks,

BG

Please ignore the above post.

I found a solution to my problem.

I just added a channel that was not listed in the Tivo OTA menu,
channel 25, then I set the output, from Dish Sat 2, to channel 25 and
received a good clear signal.

Problem solved.
