In the early days of broadcast TV, stations would often transmit a test pattern to help set up TVs and confirm their operation.  Do any of the HDTV channels on TWC offer a test pattern to help evaluate and adjust a TV set?

On occasion FSN-HD has bars & tone, but that's about it.

Right off hand I don't remember the time of day but, HDNET on DTV has a 1/2 hr test pattern on. I think it's on the weekdays in the early AM.

My Apologies, you were looking for TWC info.  I need to pay closer attention.

Tuesday at 7am you can catch that test pattern

Including on TWC, if you have the HD package.

It's also on Saturday mornings at 6 A.M.

iNHD plays test patterns now and then... it's actually a tutorial to help you set up your HDTV, not just a test pattern like HDNet's, very useful.
