Note
: The TR-40CRA includes only a digital over-the-air tuner. If channels
in your area are still broadcasting analog signals, you can view these
channels by pressing the

connection, and carries video and mono audio on RF channels
3 or 4 (step 5). Alternatively, if your TV has RCA connectors for audio and
video, you can use RCA cables to connect from the

IDEO
connection (RCA-type) on your converter to your TV’s video input (go to
step 6).
