"Weak or No Signal" message on Samsung 26" LCD TV

Why is it that more often than not, I get the "Weak or No Signal"message on some of my channels? I am hooked up to cable (no box -- just have it for the reception). I tried the cable setting, as well as the TV setting. Didn't have this problem with my old analog 13" television It is VERY frustrating! The TV has a mind of its own!

    Hi....
    Are you using the chrome screw-on type connect for the cable?
    Does the one on the TV seems loose and, have you tried a new cable between the cable box and TV yet?

    Let me know

I get a 'weak or no signal' message and can't get an AV2 choice at all , just 'free to air' tv channels
reception issues require a better signal source, attic or roof antenna should solve your dilema
Samsung should stop at AV2 when something is plugged in the correct socket, if it doesn't check for a bad cable.

Weak or no signal message
  1. Since my problem (Samsung/Comcast) began with a channel selection button pushed on the TV remote when it should have been pushed on the cable remote, I figured the problem lay with the TV.  Although I was getting the "weak or no signal" msg., the actual signal strength bar graphic showed it to be strong. Disconnecting did no good. I surmised that the TV was simply not recognizing the box.
  2. I looked at the manual for my Samsung 750 model. 
  3. Page 20 discussed "Selecting the source". I accessed the TV menu and selected "Input", then chose the "HD..." item from the highlighted list. Voila! My tv works again.
