HOOKING UP YOUR TV (ANTENNA/CABLE CONNECTIONS)
A
combination antenna
receives normal broadcast
channels (VHF 2-13 and UHF
14-69). Your connection is easy
since there is only one 75Ω
(ohm) antenna jack on the
back of your TV - and that’s
where the antenna goes.

If your antenna has a
round connector (75Ω),
then you're ready to connect it
to the TV.
If your antenna has flat
twin-lead wire (300Ω), you
first need to attach the antenna
wires to the screws on a 300
to 75Ω adaptor.
Push the round end of
the adaptor (or cable) onto
the ANT(enna) IN jack on
the back of the TV. If the
round end of the adaptor or
cable is threaded, screw it
down tight.
Y
ou may have two separate
antennas. One antenna is
for VHF channels (2-13) and
the other antenna is for UHF
channels (14-69).
For homes with separate
UHF/VHF antennas, you will
need an optional combiner
before you can connect the
antennas to the TV.
