Antenna connections
If you are using an antenna system, follow these instructions. If you are a cable (CATV) subscriber, skip ahead to page 16 for the proper connections.
Antenna to DVD/VCR connection
The DVD/VCR must be connected “between” the antenna and the TV. First, disconnect the antenna from the TV and connect it to the DVD/VCR. Then connect the DVD/VCR to the TV. Below are 3 common methods of connecting an antenna system to a DVD/VCR. Find the type of antenna system you are using and follow the connection diagram.
1 | Combination VHF/UHF Antenna with 75 ohm Coaxial Cable |
| |
| DVD/VCR |
IN
(ANT)
75 ohm Coaxial Cable
OUT (TV)
2 | Combination VHF/UHF Antenna with 300 ohm Twin Lead (Flat) Wire | |
DVD/VCR | ||

| Matching Transformer 300 ohm Input 75 | IN |
| (ANT) | |

| OUT |
|
| (TV) |
| 300 ohm Twin Lead (Flat) Wire |

3 | Separate VHF and UHF Antennas | DVD/VCR |
|
VHF
Combiner 75/300 ohm Inputs 75 ohm output
UHF | (not supplied) | |
300 ohm Twin Lead (Flat) Wire | IN | |
(not supplied) | ||
(ANT) | ||
| OUT | |
| (TV) | |
75 ohm Coaxial Cable |

Note: If both VHF and UHF antennas have 300 ohm twin lead (flat) wires, use a combiner having two 300 ohm inputs and one 75 ohm output.
Notes: • A clear picture will not be obtained by the DVD/VCR unless the antenna signal is good. Connect the antenna to the DVD/VCR properly.
•For better quality recording, an indoor antenna or a telescopic antenna is not recommended. The use of an outdoor type
antenna is required.
