our Cable TV input into your
home may be a single (75

ohm) cable, or a Converter Box
installation. In either case the
connection to the TV is very easy.
Just put the threaded end of the
cable signal to the TV's antenna
plug and screw it down tight.

If your Cable TV signal is a sin-

gle round cable (75 ohm) then
you're ready to connect to the TV. 
If you have a Cable Converter
Box:
Connect the Cable TV signal to the
Cable Signal IN(put) plug on the
Converter.. 

Connect the Cable TV cable to the

75

plug on the TV.
