Connecting an Antenna or Cable to Your TV

Your TV will provide you with the best performance if you connect it to an external antenna or cable system. Follow the directions below to make this connection. Please note that you will nor- mally only have to make one of the connections shown below, not all of them.

All connections will be made to the antenna terminal on the back of your TV. The antenna terminal is a silver metal post partially surrounded by two plastic tabs. For help in locating the antenna termi- nal, see “Your TV’s Back Panel” on page 5.

Connecting an Antenna

If your antenna ends in a single coaxial lead, simply press or screw the cable onto the antenna terminal on the back of your TV.

If your antenna ends in a pair of 300 ohm twin leads, you must use a 300-ohm/75-ohm adapter(available at your local electronics store). Place the leads underneath the screws on the adapter, tighten the screws, then press the adapter onto the antenna terminal on the back of the TV.
