HOOKING UP YOUR TV (BASIC ANTENNA TV CONNECTIONS)

Acombination antenna receives normal broadcast channels

(VHF 2-13 and UHF 14-69). Your connection is easy since there is only one 75Ω (ohm) antenna plug on the back of your TV - and that’s where the antenna goes.

If 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 flat twin-lead wire

(300 ohm), you first need to attach the antenna wires to the screws on a 300 to 75 ohm adapter.

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

Note: For homes with separate UHF and VHF antennas you will need an optional combiner to connect to the TV.
