Uldn' t it be great to view
our TV picture free of ghosts or other image problems? Well, your TV offers the first real step toward reducing or totally
eliminating ghosting and other image interferad*ce. This should be especially good news for those
home viewer's that currently use externa_ or outdoor antennas to
supply their picture.
Soon local stations will broadcast their TV programs with Ghost
Cancellation information encoded in the TV signal. These encoded signals, when passed through an accessory device and the special
circuitry provided in your TV, can dramatically reduce ghost line images and other interference
problems.
Contact your dealer or call our Information Center number (615) 475-8869for more details on this exciting new development in television broadcast technology.
Refer to the Owner's Manual with the Ghost Cancellation device for detailed /
¢
instructions on its hook-up and use.
