BASIC ANTENNA CONNECTIONS

Acombination antenna receives normal broadcast channels (VHF 2–13 and

UHF 14–69).Your connection is easy because there is only one 75(ohm) antenna plug on the back of your TV, and that’s where the antenna goes.

1If your antenna has a round cable (75 ohm) on the end, then you're ready to connect it to the TV.

If your antenna has a flat, twin-lead wire (300 ohm), you first need to attach the antenna wires to the screws on a 300- to 75-ohm adapter.

2Push the round end of the adapter (or antenna) onto the 75(ohm) plug on the back of the TV. If the round end of the antenna wire is threaded, screw it down finger tight.
