Cable with a Cable Box that Descrambles Some (But Not All) Channels

To complete this connection you will need a two-way splitter, an RF (A/B) switch, and four coaxial
cables (which you can buy from your AKAI dealer or any electronics store).
1Find and disconnect the
cable that is connected to
the ANTENNA IN terminal
of your Splitter.
This terminal might be
labeled “ANT IN”, “VHF IN”
or simply, “IN”. Connect this
cable to a two-way splitter.
2Connect a coaxial cable
between an OUT terminal
of the splitter and the IN
terminal of the Cable box.
3Connect a coaxial cable
between the ANTENNA OUT
terminal of the Cable box
and the B-IN terminal of the
RF (A/B) switch.
4Connect another cable
between the other OUT
terminal on the splitter and
the A–IN terminal on the
RF (A/B) switch.
5Connect the last coaxial
cable between the OUT
terminal of the RF (A/B)
switch and the ANT 1 IN
(CABLE) on the TV.
After you’ve made this connection, set the A/B switch to the “A” position for normal viewing.
Set the A/B switch to the “B” position to view scrambled channels. (When you set the A/B switch
to “B”, you will need to tune your Set-Top Box to the Cable box's output channel, which is usually
channel 3 or 4.)
