The Cable TV signal into your home may be a single cable (75 ohm ) or may include a Cable Box. In either case, the connection to the TV is easy. If your Cable TV signal comes directly via a 75 ohm coaxial cable, using the following steps: Connect the Cable TV signal to the 75 ohm ANTENNA INPUT jack on the rear of the TV.
A combination antenna receives normal broadcast channels (VHF 2-13 AND UHF 14-69). Your connection is easy since you will connect the antenna to the 75 OHM ANTENNA INPUT jack on the rear of the TV. If your antenna has a round cable (75 ohm) on the end, then you are ready to connect it to the TV. Go to the next step. If your antenna has flat twin-lead wire (300 ohm), you first need to attach the antenna wires to the screws on a 300 to 75 ohm adapter (not supplied with your TV).
The basic component (VCR, DVD player etc.) to TV connection is described below. For other hookups, refer to your component's instruction manual. Connect a yellow video cable to the VIDEO jack on the front of the TV and to the VIDEO OUT jack on your VCR (or other component).
