Cable or Antenna Only

For best results, use one of the following connections if you are connecting a cable or an antenna and you:

Do not need a cable box to unscramble channels. (If you have a cable box, see pages 21-22.)

Do not intend to connect a VCR. (If you have a VCR, see pages 24 and 26.)

The connection you choose depends on the cable type you have in your home, as described below.
