Choosing a Hookup
The hookups on pages 3 through 5 are divided into two hookup types: Basic (A) and Advanced (B).
The basic hookup shows the backs of TVs that have only an antenna/cable connection. It is the easier of the two and additional accessories may not be needed.
The advanced hookup shows the VCR hooked up to a monitor/receiver
(TV with audio and video jacks) using a signal splitter. This connection may improve the picture quality as well as convenience of operation.
Answer the questions to choose the hookup for your VCR.
1. How do you receive your TV signals?
Choose one answer from below. A. Outside antenna - Turn to page 3.
B. Rabbit ears (set-top) and/or bow tie antenna - Turn to page 3.
C. Cable System - Go to question 2.
2. What type of Cable-TV system* do you have?
Choose one answer from below.
A. Cable without a box - Turn to page 3.
B. Cable box to unscramble all the channels - Turn to page 4. C. Cable box to unscramble only pay channels, such as HBO, Showtime,
Cinemax, etc. - Turn to page 5.
*You may need to contact your local cable company for assistance.
