For subscriber to basic cable TV service

connect the CATV 75 ohm Coaxial Cable directly to the Antenna Jack

on the back of the unit.

If you subscribe to a cable TV service which requires the use of a Converter/Descrambler box, connect the incoming 75 ohm

Coaxial Cable to the Converter/Descrambler box. Using another 75 ohm Coaxial Cable, connect the output jack of the

Converter/Descrambler box to the Antenna Jack on the unit. Follow the connections shown below. Tune the unit to the output

channel of the Converter/Descrambler box (usually channel 3 or 4) and use the Converter/Descrambler box to select chan-

nels.

For subscriber to scrambled cable TV service

75 ohm

Coaxial Cable

If you subscribe to a cable TV service in which basic channels are unscrambled and premium channels require the use of a

Converter/Descrambler box, you may wish to use a signal Splitter and an A/B Switch box (available from the Cable company

or an electronics supply store). Follow the connections shown below. With the switch in the “B” position, you can directly tune

any nonscrambled channels on your unit. With the switch in the “A” position, tune your unit to the output of the Converter/

Descrambler box (usually channel 3 or 4) and use the Converter/Descrambler box to tune scrambled channels.

This unit has an extended tuning range and can tune most cable channels without using a Cable TV Converter box. Some

cable companies offer “premium pay channels” in which the signal is scrambled. Descrambling these signals for normal

viewing requires the use of a descrambler device which is generally provided by the cable company.
