    Default Samsung TV and not availablle

    Our Boob tubekeeps flashing a little blurb on the screen that says "Not Available."

    I color and fonts look like they are part of the control ststem when setting the TV up.

    Nothing else is suppose to be running in the TV other than spectrum. I have rebooted all eletrical systems connected to the TV and the TV itself. All that is hooked to it is a firestick and the spectrum hardware.

    We have not had any changes to the TV controls. And in the remote controls.

    I have done a TV self check.

    Anybody else seem this or have suggestions?

    Tganks.

    Because we don't have ATT fiber.

    None of the other TV's are having an issue. I don't think it is Spectrum this time.

    Thanks Woodrow.

    I will disable the remotes I have and see what gives. I have put new batteries in most. Just maybe a key is sticking.

    I do have a drawer full for TVs that are long gone and then there are a couple of remotes upstairs and downstairs. Wonder how well they send signals through floors and ceilings.

    Yes and hold the on/off switch down for 20 sec or something like that. With no power I don’t know what holding the off switch on the tv down does.
