Get the Picture

The fi rst part of connecting your TV is to get the picture, also known
as the signal. The back panel of your TV allows you to receive analog
and/or digital channels by using the ANT Input. See the graphic to the
left for the location of the jack.

Getting Channels

What You Need
• Antenna ("rabbit ears") or outdoor antenna with coaxial cable
• Coaxial cable with cable service
A. Do you have an indoor or outdoor antenna? If not, go to step B. If
so, plug the antenna or coaxial cable from the wall outlet into the
ANT Input to receive free off-air local digital and analog channels
where available.
B. Do you have cable? If so, plug the coaxial cable from the wall
outlet into the ANT Input to receive your cable channels.
C. Do you have a set-top box? If so, you may need to call your cable
company or satellite service provider. They may use special cables
to allow you to view digital channels.
What You Need To Know
• Visit www.antennaweb.org to get help deciding what type of
antenna to use to receive the local digital channels available to
you. By entering where you live, this mapping program tells you
what local analog and digital stations are available using a certain
antenna.
• When you are ready to watch channels, the channel banner
displays the type of channel you're viewing. Look for DIGITAL at
the bottom of the screen for digital channels; look for ANALOG for
analog channels. Go to page 14 for more information.
