The following is a brief explanation of the type of connections that are provided with the various antenna systems:
1. A 75-ohm system is generally a round cable with
F-type connector
F4ype connector that can easily be attached to a terminal without tools (not supplied).
75-ohm coaxial cable (round)
2, A 300-ohm system is afiat"twin-lead" cable that
can be attached to a 75-ohm terminal through a 300/75-ohm ADAPTOR (not supplied)
300-ohm twin-lead cable (flat)
Refer to one of the following two diagrams when connecting to an outdoor antenna A: Using a VHF/UHF combination outdoor antenna.
