Getting Started
Connecting the TV
Cable System or VHF/UHF Antenna System
You can enjoy high-definition and standard-definition digital programming (if available in
your area) along with standard-definition analog programming.
This TV is capable of receiving unscrambled digital programming for both cable (QAM
and 8VSB) and external VHF/UHF antenna (ATSC).
x Cable or VHF/UHF (or VHF only)
• It is strongly recommended that you connect the CABLE/ANTENNA input using a 75-ohm
coaxial cable to receive optimum picture quality. A 300-ohm twin lead cable can easily be
affected by radio frequency interference, resulting in signal degradation.
Cable System and VHF/UHF Antenna System
Use an optional A-B RF switch (not supplied) to switch between the cable and over-the-
air antenna programming, as indicated below.
• Be sure to set the Signal Type setting to Cable or Antenna found under the Channel settings
for your input signal (page 56).
