INTRODUCTION

Antenna/Cable TV
Connections

• You can use either an indoor or outdoor antenna to receive VHF and UHF channels.

• Channels 2-13 are VHF channels, and channels 14-69 are UHF channels.

• We recommend using an outdoor antenna for better picture quality.

• You can receive Cable TV by connecting the cable supplied by your local cable

company.

Types of antenna cables

Shown below are two basic types of antenna cables.
Signals from a home antenna may be conveyed by either type. Cable TV
signals are conveyed by a 75 ohm coaxial cable.

1 A 75 ohm coaxial cable is generally a round cable with F-type

connectors that can easily be attached to a terminal without tools.

2 A 300 ohm cable is a flat “twin-lead” cable that can be attached to a

terminal using the supplied antenna adapter.

Antenna connection panel

There are two separate 75 ohm F-type connector input terminals and a
converter output terminal as shown at the left.
The ANT-1 and ANT-2 terminals are for connecting a VHF/UHF antenna
or cable TV system. The signal input through ANT-1 is output from the
OUT terminal whenever the RF switch on the TV is in the ANT-2 position.
You can switch between the ANT-1 and ANT-2 inputs in the ANT 1/2
menu or with the ANT/VIDEO button on the TV. See page 21.
