<If an outside antenna isconnected tothe television equipment, be sure the antennasystem isgrounded so as to provide some protection
against voltage surges and built-up static charges. Section 810 of the National Electrical Code provides information with respect to proper grounding of the mast and supporting structure, grounding of the lead-in wire to an antenna discharge unit, size of grounding conductors, location ofantenna-discharge unit, connectionto grounding electrodes,and requirements forthe grounding electrode.
EXAMPLE OF ANTENNA GROUNDING AS PER NATIONAL
ELECTRICAL CODE
NEC—NATIONAL ELECTRICAL CODE
<An outside antenna system should not be located in the vicinity of overheadpower linesor other
electric light or power circuits, or where it can collide with such power lines or circuits. When installing anoutside antennasystem, extreme care should be taken to keep from touchingsuch power lines orcircuits, as contactwith them mightbe fatal.

Antenna Connection
CABLE TV (CATV) CONNECTION
A75-ohm coaxialcable connector is built into the set for easy hookup. When connecting the 75- ohm coaxial cable to the set, screw the 75­ohm cable totheANT. Terminal. Some cable TV companies offer “premium pay channels”. Since the signals of these premium pay channels are scrambled, a cable TV converter/descrambler is generallyprovided to thesubscriber by thecable TV company. This converter/descrambler is necessary for normal viewing of the scrambled channels. For more specific instructions on installing cable TV, consult your cable TV company. One possible method of utilizing the converter/descrambler provided by your cable TV company is explained below. Please note:An RFswitch provided withtwo inputs (Aand B)is required (notsupplied).

Note:
Consult your Dealeror Service Centerfor the typeof splitter, RF switchor combiner thatmight be required.
ANTENNAS
The antennarequirements for good color television reception are moreimportant than those for black & white televisionreception. For this reason, a goodquality outdoor antennais strongly recommended. The following isa brief explanationof the typeof connections thatare provided withthe various antenna systems.
1. A 75-ohm system is generally a round cable with F-type connector that can easily be attachedto a terminalwithout tools (notsupplied).
2. A 300-ohm system is a flat “twin-lead” cable that can be attached to a 75-ohm terminal through a300-75-ohm adapter (notsupplied).
