If you live on the Sunshine Coast in Queensland and you don’t receive Extra you can tune into Channel Nine by following the instructions below.

How to tune your TV

To get the best picture possible, you will need to have a suitable UHF antenna. You may already have one of these to receive Sunshine Coast television. Also ensure you have a good quality coaxial cable from your antenna to your TV and check that all connections are correct.

Then all you need to do is tune your TV or VCR to UHF 37. It’s easy. Just follow the tuning instruction in your manufacturer’s handbook. For some TVs, you may find either of the following instructions helpful.

Instructions for automatic channel selectors

  1. Locate and open the control compartment, or the tuning menu on later models, and select a channel not in use.
