our Cable TV input into
your home may be a
single (75 ohm) cable, or a
Converter Box installation.
In either case the connec-
tion 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 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.
