VCR and Cable Box For best results, use this connection if:
Your cable company scrambles some channels, such as premium
channels (which requires you to use a cable box), but does not
scramble all channels.
With this connection you can:
Use the TV remote control to change channels coming through
the cable box. (You must first program the remote control for
your specific cable box; see Programming the Remote Control
on page 43.)
Use the TV remote control to change channels coming directly
into the TVs VHF/UHF jack. (The TVs tuner provides a better
signal than the cable box.)
Record channels coming through the cable box and c hannels
coming directly into the TV.
