HOOKUP CABLES AND CONNECTOR
Most video/audio connections between components can be made with shielded video and audio cables that have
phono connectors. For best performance, video cables should use 75-Ohm coaxial shielded wire. Cables can be pur-
chased from most stores that sell audio/video products. Below are illustrations and names of common connectors.
Before purchasing any cables, be sure of the output and input connector types required by the various components.
Also make sure the cables are the correct length.
300-Ohm Twin Lead Connector
This outdoor antenna cable must be connected to an
antenna adapter (300-Ohm to 75-Ohm).
"F" Type 75-Ohm Coaxial Antenna Connector
For connecting RF signals (antenna or cable TV) to the
antenna jack on the television.
O
--=.<DO
Phono Connector
Used on all standard video and audio cables which con-
nect to inputs and outputs located on the television's
rear jack panel and front control panel.
S-Video (Super Video) Connector
This connector is used on camcorders, VCRs and laser-
disc players with an S-Video feature in place of the
standard video cable to produce a high quality picture.
ANTENNA CONNECTIONS
These sets are equipped with one VHFAJHF antenna terminal. The VHFAJHF terminal can be used for normal TV,
cable TV (CATV), a TV game, etc.
1. VHF(75-Ohm)
antenna/CAW
When using a 75-Ohm coaxial cable system,
disconnect the VHF adaptor from the VHF 75-Ohm
receptacle and connect the outdoor antenna or
CATVcable to a VHF 75-Ohm receptacle.

3. When both VHIFand UHFantennaa are connected
Attach an optional ANTENNA MIXER to the TV
antenna terminal and connect the cables to the
ANTENNA MIXER.

2. VHF (300-Ohm) antenna/UHF antenna
When using a 300-Ohm twin lead from an outdoor
antenna disconnect the (VHF or UHF) indoor
antenna leads from screws of the (VHF or (UHF)
adaptor and connect outdoor (VHF or UHF)
leads to these screws of a (VHF or UHF) adaptor.

Notes:
1. If an outdoor antenna/CAW is used, disconnect
the indoor antenna. Ghosting and poor reception
may result if both the indoor and outdoor antennas
CATV are connected atthe same time.
2. Consult your dealer or service store for the
ANTENNA MIXER and (VHF or UHF) adaptor.
3. The special converter (decoder) will be supplied
by the cable company.
