Many cable companies offer services permitting reception of extra channels including pay or subscription channels. 
This DVD/VCR has an extended tuning range and can be tuned to most cable channels without using a cable company 
supplied converter box, except for those premium channels which are intentionally scrambled. If you subscribe to a 
premium channel which is scrambled, you must have a descrambler box for proper reception.
Note:  Whenever a Converter/Descrambler box is placed before the DVD/VCR, you must tune the DVD/VCR to the output of the 
Converter/Descrambler box, usually channel 3 or 4.
