HOOKING UP THE TELEVISION
A
combination antenna receives normal broadcast channels (VHF 2–13 and UHF 14–69). Your connection is
easy because there is only one 75Ω (ohm) antenna plug on
the back of your TV, and that’s where the antenna goes.
1
If your antenna has a round cable (75 ohm) on the end,
then you're ready to connect it to the TV.
If your antenna has flat, twin-lead wire (300 ohm), you
first need to attach the antenna wires to the screws on a
300- to 75-ohm adapter.
2
Push the round end of the adapter (or antenna) onto the
75Ω (ohm) plug on the bottom of the TV. If the round end
of the antenna wire is threaded, screw it down finger tight.

3
Connect the other end of the round coaxial cable to the
75Ω input on the bottom of the television. Screw it down finger tight.
NOTE: Be sure to set the OUTPUT CHANNEL SWITCH on the
back of the cable box to CH 3 or 4, then tune the cable box on the
TV to the corresponding channel. Once tuned, change channels at
