Hooking Up the VCR

Choosing a Hookup

The hookups on pages 3 through 5 are divided into two hookup types:
Basic (A) and Advanced (B).
The basic hookup shows the backs of TVs that have only an antenna/cable
connection. It is the easier of the two and additional accessories may not be
needed.
The advanced hookup shows the VCR hooked up to a TV with audio and video
jacks using a signal splitter. This connection may improve the picture quality as
well as convenience of operation.
