Please note that you cannot connect an LD player's DOLBY DIGITAL RF OUT jack directly to the receiver's digital input
jacks. You must first convert the RF signal to either an optical or coaxial digital signal. Connect the LD player to the RF
demodulator, then connect the RF demodulator's optical or coaxial digital output to the receiver's OPTICAL or COAXIAL
DVD/LD IN jack. Refer to the instruction manual supplied with your RF Demodulator for details on DOLBY DIGITAL RF
hookups.
