Make sure it is an auto program for air channels not cable. Even though you have cable select air on the menu then autoprogram for analog and digital channels.

cable channels in this range are not usually on the same numbers as the OTA channels. my ch 5 OTA is on ch 3 cable also.
is your dad's set on the cable also?
If it is and he has an old mechanical tuner, he may have tuned to ch3 with it on ch 5 which u can do with those old tuners.
