CABLE TV (CATV) CONNECTION
A 75-ohm coaxial cable connector is built into the set for easy hookup. When connecting the 75- ohm coaxial cable to the set,
screw the 75-ohm cable to the ANT. Terminal.
Some cable TV companies offer “premium pay channels”. Since the signals of these premium pay channels are scrambled, a
cable TV converter/descrambler is generally provided to the subscriber by the cable TV company.
This converter/descrambler is necessary for normal viewing of the scrambled channels. For more specific instructions on
installing cable TV, consult your cable TV company. One possible method of utilizing the converter/descrambler provided by
your cable TV company is explained below. Please note: An RF switch provided with two inputs (A and B) is required (not
supplied).
“A” position on the RF switch (not supplied) : You can view all unscrambled channels by using the TV’s channel keys.
“B” position on the RF switch (not supplied) : You can view the scrambled channels via the converter/descrambler by using
the converter’s channel keys.

ANTENNAS
The antenna requirements for good color television reception are more important than those for black & white television
reception. For this reason, a good quality outdoor antenna is strongly recommended.
The following is a brief explanation of the type of connections that are provided with the various antenna systems.
1. A 75-ohm system is generally a round cable with F-type connector that
can easily be attached to a terminal without tools (not supplied).
2. A 300-ohm system is a flat “twin-lead” cable that can be attached to a
75-ohm terminal through a 300-75-ohm adapter (not supplied).
OUTDOOR ANTENNA CONNECTION
Use one of the following two diagrams if you connect an outdoor antenna.
A: Using a VHF/UHF combination outdoor antenna.
B: Using separate VHF and/or UHF outdoor antennas.
Connect the outdoor antenna cable lead-in to the ANT. terminal on the
rear of the TV set.
