our Cable TV input
into your home may be
a single (75 ohm) cable, or
a Converter Box installa-
tion. In either case the con-
nection to the TV is very
easy. Just put the threaded
end of the cable signal to
the TV's antenna plug and
screw it down finger tight.
NOTE: The connecting cable
for the Converter is supplied
from the Cable TV Company.

A combination antenna
receives normal broad-
cast channels (VHF 2-13
and UHF 14-69). Your
connection is easy since
there is only one 75Ω
(ohm) antenna plug on the
back of your TV - and
that's where the antenna
goes.
