Hello, let me explain my problem. I just bought a TCL 50DP660 TV, I did a first channel search where I only found 21, so I was missing some. I did a second search and this time I found 26, so I thought everything was fine.
I scroll through the channels one by one, no problem until I come across channels like L'équipe 21, France O, 6Ter, RMC, where I get a message "No signal." Otherwise, all the other channels work, the signal strength varies between 98 and 100%, I don't know where this could be coming from.

    Hello and welcome to this forum,

    You just bought a new TV with a female antenna socket of 9.52 mm, make sure your cable doesn't have an old male coaxial connector of 9 mm (often green) that could "float" in the female socket of the TV and create a bad connection.
    Next, check the coaxial connectors, unplug them and plug them back in multiple times to eliminate any possible oxidation; if necessary, clean them properly and be careful, even the slightest "hair" from the braid touching the copper core can cause problems...
    The antenna may have moved as well...
