How do I program my universal remote to get my cable channels on second tv (no cable box)?

The cable guy just left, and I've got channels 1-90 on two different tvs. However, he only gave me one cable box. He said he'd have to charge me more for another box, and all I needed was a universal remote to get the second tv to work. I do have all the channels on the second tv, I just can't change them at all, even from the tv.

There 2 different programs that are showing on both tv channel 98 and 99, and that's all I can access. I've programmed the universal remote to turn that tv on and off, but to program the cable the instructions are asking for the cable box manufacturer. I know the manufacturer, but since it's in another room, that won't help, will it?

Does this guy know what he's talking about, and is there a way around this? Asked by 8esther8 31 months ago Similar questions: program universal remote cable channels tv box Entertainment > Television.

Given below the answer Y'know, everyone laughed at Steve Wozniak (co-founder of Apple Computer) when he announced that the need for an easily programmed universal remote was one of the next big challenges in the computer industry, with his startup CORE and the CL-9 universal remote, but twenty years later we're still all struggling with these pesky critters. I know that I have six remote controls for my A/V setup, which is really too darn many. Sources: askdavetaylor.com/how_to_program_comcast... .

Cable television is a system of providing television to consumers via radio frequency signals. Cable television is a system of providing television to consumers via radio frequency signals transmitted to televisions through fixed optical fibers or coaxial cables as opposed to the over-the-air method used in traditional television broadcasting (via radio waves) in which a television antenna is required. FM radio programming, high-speed Internet, telephony, and similar non-television services may also be provided.

The abbreviation CATV is often used to mean "Cable TV". It originally stood for Community Antenna Television, from cable television's origins in 1948: in areas where over-the-air reception was limited by mountainous terrain, large "community antennas" were constructed, and cable was run from them to individual homes. It is most commonplace in North America, Europe, Australia and East Asia, though it is present in many other countries, mainly in South America and the Middle East.

Cable TV has had little success in Africa, as it is not cost-effective to lay cables in sparsely populated areas. So-called "wireless cable" or microwave-based systems are used instead. Asiaedit MongoliaThere are several cable tv providers in Mongolia.

The main three are "SuperVision", "imori" and "Sansar CATV". All three cover approximately 10 national channels and 40 foreign channels, such as CNN, BBC, NHK. Among them "SuperVision" is known for its superior quality and gives much more interesting channels, such as National Geographic and Discovery."Sansar" and "imori" and other smaller companies fill their channel list with Chinese and Indian channels.

Citation needededit Europeedit United Kingdom It has been suggested that this section be split into a new article entitled Cable television in the United Kingdom. (Discuss)When the infant BBC Television service was started in 1932, Rediffusion, which had supplied cable radio services since 1928, started providing "Pipe TV" to its customers who had difficulties tuning into the weak TV broadcast signal1. The service was suspended during World War II, and when it was re-established in June 1946, it had only one transmitter, at Alexandra Palace, which served the London area.

From the end of 1949, new transmitters were steadily opened to serve other major conurbations, and then smaller areas of population. The areas on the fringes of the transmitter coverage provided an opportunity for Rediffusion and other commercial companies to expand cable systems to enlarge the viewing audience for the one BBC television channel which then existed. The first was in Gloucester in 1950citation needed and the process gathered pace over the next few years, especially after a second television channel, ITV, was launched in 1955 to compete with the BBC.

By the late 1970s, two and a half million British homes received their television service via cable. Citation neededBy law, these cable systems were restricted to the relay of the public broadcast channels, which meant that as the transmitter network became more comprehensive the incentive to subscribe to cable was reduced and they began to lose customers.In 1982, a radical liberalisation of the law on cable was proposed by the Information Technology Advisory Panel, for the sake of promoting a new generation of broadband cable systems leading to the wired society. After setting up and receiving the conclusions of the Hunt Inquiry into Cable Expansion and Broadcasting Policy, the Government decided to proceed with liberalisation and two pieces of legislation: the Cable and Broadcasting Act and the Telecommunications Act, were enacted in 1984.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
