a round cable as illustrated, it is a 75 ohm coaxial
antenna cable. This cable will connect directly to
the jack marked ANTENNA/CABLE IN on your
DVD+Hi-Fi VCR.

If your antenna lead wire is a flat type antenna cable,
connect it to an Antenna Adapter (300-ohm to 75-ohm)
(not supplied) and slip the Adapter onto the ANTENNA/
CABLE IN jack. The Adapter does not screw on to the
DVD+Hi-Fi VCR, it just slips over the jack.

or descrambler box, unscrew the wire from your TV and attach
it to the ANTENNA/CABLE IN jack on the DVD+Hi-Fi VCR.

DVD+Hi-Fi VCR’s ANTENNA/CABLE OUT jack and the 75
ohm antenna input jack on the TV. With this connection, you
can receive all midband, super band, and hyperband channels.
