Accessory Information

Antenna (or cable-TV) connections are made with either coaxial antenna cable or twin-lead cable. Coaxial cables are shielded so they are less susceptible to hum or interference from adjacent cables.

The following accessories are available from most dealers and electronics supply stores in case you want to position your components farther apart or need additional cables.

Audio/Video Cables

Standard Audio/Video cable with RCA-type phono plugs (such as No. VH83)

Color-Coded Jacks

The jacks on the TV’s monitor panel are color-coded for ease of use. The video jacks are yellow, the right audio jacks are red, and the left audio jacks are white. When connecting components to each other, be sure that you always connect left outputs to left inputs and right outputs to right inputs.

To connect S-VHS (Super-VHS) components, an S-VHS video cable is required.

S-Video cable (such as No. VH913)

Gold-Plated Jacks and Gold-Tipped Cables

Gold plating helps prevent oxidation of contacts which provides much less loss than conventional contacts. A complete line of gold-tipped cables is available to help you obtain optimum performance from your equipment.
