CHOOSING
A VCR CONNECTION
There are several
different
ways to connect
your
VCR,
depending
on whether
or not you
have cable service,
if
you have a cable
box to see this service,
whether
some of
the cable
channels
are scrambled,
and so on.
Three
connections
are described
in this section
and one of
them
should
provide
you with
a VCR connection
that
works.
•
TVwith
RFjack only
•
TVwith
audio/video
jacks
•
TV with audio/video
jacks and cable box to unscramble
pay
channels only
If you
need to connect
additional
components
not shown
in the diagrams
here (and are unsure
of how to connect
them),
refer to the instruction
manual
that came with that
particular
component.
ADVANTAGES
OF AUDIO/VI
DEO CABLE
CONNECTIONS
Using
a simple
coaxial
cable
connection
gives you good
picture
quality.
If your
television
has audio/video
jacks,
I
highly
recommend
using
them
to get even
better
picture
quality
and mono
sound
when
recording
and playing
back
videotapes.
These connections
give you
more convenient
operation
by not having
to share
the TV's antenna
signal.
