Otwmeof you may have

One antenna is for VHF

other antenna is for UHF
channels (14-69).
For homes with separate
UHF/VHF antennas, you
will need an optional
"combiner" before you can

"Smart Help" section (to
the right on this page)for
ordering details.

round cable (75 ohm) on the
end, then you're ready to con-

need to attach the antenna wires
to the screws on a 300 to 75
ohm adapter.
_Push the round end of the
adapter (or antenna) onto the
ANTENNA plug on the rear of
the TV. If the round end of the
