I Can't Get Tv Channels Using An Antenna

What mode must the tv be in to get channels under auto channel search with use of an antenna and not cable?  I had use of the local channels and almost 15 channels on the tv before I set it up for use with DISH Network.  The DISH Network technician must have changed something in the tv, as I cannot not get channels without use of cable.

Are you using a digital-capable receiver? Last year television switched from the old-fashioned tv channel system to the new digital system. The mode you are looking for  should switch between "Television" or "Cable" and will likely be called "Input"
