That is normal for those TV's. Many "cable ready" TV's up until the late '80's-early '90's would only go up to 36. Some went up into the 40's or maybe 50's. Cable ready TV's that would go up into the 100's weren't standard until the '90's. I have an '85 19" Sony that goes up to, IIRC, 99. OTOH, we had an '82-'83 Magnavox that would only go to 36. That wasn't an issue back then, as many cable systems didn't go above 36. I know ours didn't. Currently, I think 67 is as high as we go. I think where Emerson came up with the "110 channel" thing was adding the number of channels available on the standard off air band + the number of channels available on the cable band, which is misleading. I've seen VCR's that boasted 110 channel tuning; yet, they only had a 14 position tuner. I think they meant that you could tune any one of 110 channels into the available 14 channel slots.
