If you've just bought a new TV, or are rescanning to get NewsChannel 5, please follow the instructions below. Have a different brand of TV? Head to our antenna home and select the model of TV you own.

There are dozens of models of Hisense TVs. The instructions below cover the most popular models, but may not work for all.

Do you have a Hisense Roku TV? Use these instructions instead to rescan your channels!
