This TV has an extended tuning range and can tune most cable channels without using a Cable TV Converter box. Some
cable companies offer "premium pay channels" where the signal is scrambled. Descrambling these signals for normal
viewing requires the use of a descrambler device which is generally provided by the Cable TV company.

For subscribers to unscrambled Cable TV service with scrambled premium channels
If you subscribe to a Cable TV service in which basic channels are unscrambled and premium channels require the use of a
Converter/Descrambler box, you may wish to use a signal Splitter and an A/B Switch box (available from the Cable TV company
or an electronics supply store). Follow the connections shown below. With the switch in the "B" position, you can directly tune any
nonscrambled channels on your TV. With the switch in the "A" position, tune your TV to the output of the Converter/Descrambler box
(usually channel 3 or 4) and use the Converter/Descrambler box to tune scrambled channels.
