If you want to retain analogue TV reception on your television or on any other devices with a TV tuner (VCR or DVD recorder for example), connect the included extension cable to the Loop Out connector of Magic TV™ and to the Antenna In on your other device. Many devices can form part of the antenna loop, by chaining together the Antenna Outs to Antenna Ins on each device.

We recommend using Magic TV™ as the first component on the chain and your television as the last.
