Chapter 2 Installing the LCD TV

Refer to the owner’s manual of any external equipment to be connected.
When connecting any external equipment, do not connect any AC power cords to wall outlets until all
other connections are completed.

Connecting a TV Cable or Antenna

Antenna Connection

The antenna requirements for good color TV reception are more important than those for a black &
white TV reception. For this reason, a good quality outdoor antenna is strongly recommended.
The following is a brief explanation of the type of connection that is provided with the various antenna
systems.

■ A 75-ohm system is generally a round cable (not included) with F-

type connector that can easily be at tached to a terminal without
tools.

F-type connector

75-ohm coaxial cable (round)

■ A 300-ohm system is a f lat twin-lead cable (not included) t hat can

be attached to a 75-ohm terminal through a 300-75-ohm adapter
(not included).

300-ohm twin-lead cable (flat)

Use one of the following two diagrams when connecting an outdoor antenna.
A: Shows how to use a VHF/UHF combination outdoor antenna.
B: Shows how to use a separate VHF and/or UHF outdoor antenna.
