Connecting VHF andUHF Antennas
If you do not have cable TV, you
must connect an antenna to your
TV/VCR. First you need to identify
your antenna’s lead type:
If you are using the antenna
that has 300-ohm twin flat
leads, (see the illustration
below) see “Antennas With
300-ohm Flat Twin Leads,”on
this page.
If your antenna has a 75-ohm
round lead (see the
illustration below), see
“Antennas With 75-ohm
Round Leads,” on this page.
If you have two antennas,
see “Separate VHF and UHF
Antennas,” on this page.

Antennas With 300-ohm

Flat Twin Leads

If you use a different 300-ohm
antenna with twin flat leads,
follow the directions below, but
skip step 1.
1Push the stem of the rod
antenna into the antenna
mount.
2Place the wires from the twin
leads under the screws on
the 300-75 ohm adapter.
Use a screwdriver to tighten
the screws.
3Plug the adapter into the
terminal on the rear panel of
the TV/VCR.
Extend the antenna and
adjust it for the clearest
picture.To reduce the risk of
damage, only adjust the
antenna by moving the black
plastic base.

Antennas With 75-ohm

Round Leads

1Plug the lead into the
terminal on the rear panel of
the TV/VCR.

Separate VHF and UHF

Antennas

If you have two separate anten-
nas for your TV/VCR (one VHF
and one UHF), you must combine
the two antenna signals before
connecting them to the TV/VCR.
This procedure requires a com-
biner attachment that you can
purchase at an electronics
store.
