Yep. one will almost ALWAYS receive more than the other. First, I am assuming you used the scan feature to load the channels. The TV digital tuner has a threshold set to decide if a channel has intelligence on it. ie. If absent or too weak to reliably watch it skips it. If it does meet the threshold, it stores it to memory. Each TV may have a different threshold level set internally at that factory. Also when you did the scan the signal strength may have varied ever so slightly. Plus, the length of the cable to the outside and bedroom sets might have a tiny loss. When I do the scan at setup time, I might get 30 channels on the front TV, 27 outside and maybe 22 on the bedroom. (Never did an exact count, but they always differ.) BTW, if you do a rescan of the sets, they are very likely to come up with different numbers again. The marginal stations will come and go.
Nothing wrong... (Unless the numbers are VERY different (50%). In which case you might have an amp/cable/splitter problem. Not likely a TV...
BTW, That is the same unit we have. (FRS-DS)
