Basic Connections
(Connecting Cable TV or
Antenna)
Connecting directly to cable or an
antenna
VHF only or VHF/UHF or cable
Note
It is strongly recommended to connect the antenna using a 75-
ohm coaxial cable to get optimum picture quality. A 300-ohm
twin lead cable can be easily affected by radio noise and the like,
resulting in signal deterioration. If you use a 300-ohm twin lead
cable, keep it away as far as possible from the TV.
Cable box connections
Use this hookup if:
• You subscribe to a cable TV system that uses
scrambled or encoded signals requiring a cable
box to view all channels, and
• You do not intend to hook up any other audio or
video equipment to your TV.
1Connect the coaxial connector from your cable
service to the cable box’s IN jack.
2Using the supplied 75-ohm coaxial cable,
connect the cable box’s OUT jack to the TV’s
VHF/UHF jack.
Also, set “Cable” to “On” in the (TV Setup)
menu (See page 18).
Tips
• Your Sony remote control can be programmed to operate your
cable box. (See “Programming the remote control” on page
30).
• To change channels using the cable box, set your TV to
channel 3 or 4 depending on the cable box channel output.
