This machine may not be worth it but I have an Emerson VCR755 I use as a tuner on a TV with a bad internal tuner. It's a setup basically for my son's gaming but occasionally it's used to record events, but channels
This is NOT a remote control or channel programming issue...... ... those channels you mentioned are NOT AVAILABLE on this vintage (1989) VCR.

37, etc. were NEVER included in this VCR's programming BUT I can get Ch. 95 and so on? Maybe I'm being dense but someone will have to explain this "explanation" to me.......please.......
kartdriver88: CATV channel 95 is just above the broadcast FM band and is actually lower in frequency than CATV channel 14. The Emerson VCR755 was marketed when the CATV channels were not entirely recoginized above channel 36. During this period of time, the lowest frequency CATV channels 95 -100 were available, but nothing widely available between
36 and 95 yet. Most cable systems have dropped those lowest frequency channels because of interference with broadcast FM. electricitym . .Have something to add? Share your thoughts — no account required.
