Step 2 — Connecting the Antenna
Notes
•Most VHF/UHF combination antennas have a signal splitter. Remove the splitter before attaching the appropriate connector.
•If you use the U/V mixer, snow and noise may appear in the picture when viewing cable TV channels over 37 (W+1).
•The cable box is supplied by the cable company.
Although you can use either an indoor or outdoor antenna with your Video/TV, we recommend connecting an outdoor antenna or a cable TV system for better picture quality.
Connecting an antennaConnect your antenna cable to the VHF/UHF antenna terminal. If you cannot connect your antenna cable directly to the terminal, follow the instructions that match your cable type.

Connecting to a cable boxSome pay cable TV systems use scrambled or encoded signals that require a cable box to view all channels.
If you control all channel selection through your cable box, you should consider using the CHANNEL FIX feature (see “Selecting the Video/TV’s Cable Box Input Channel – CHANNEL FIX” on page 38.)
