connect it to the DVD/VCR. Then connect the DVD/VCR to the TV. Below are 3 common methods of connecting an antenna
system to a DVD/VCR. Find the type of antenna system you are using and follow the connection diagram.
1
Combination VHF/UHF Antenna with 75 ohm Coaxial Cable
2
Combination VHF/UHF Antenna with 300 ohm Twin Lead (Flat) Wire
3
Separate VHF and UHF Antennas
VHF
Note:
If both VHF and UHF antennas have 300 ohm twin lead (flat) wires, use a combiner having two 300 ohm inputs and
one 75 ohm output.

Notes:
A clear picture will not be obtained by the DVD/VCR unless the antenna signal is good. Connect the antenna to
the DVD/VCR properly.
•
For better quality recording, an indoor antenna or a telescopic antenna is not recommended. The use of an outdoor type
antenna is required.

If you are not sure about the connection, please refer to qualified service personnel.
