Combination VHF/UHF Antenna (Single 75 ohm cable or 300 ohm twin-lead wire)

Connect the 75 ohm cable from a combination VHF/UHF antenna to the antenna jack.If your combination 

antenna has a 300 ohm twin-lead wire, use the 300-75 ohm matching transformer (not supplied).

Combination VHF/UHF Antenna (Separate VHF and UHF 300 ohm twin-lead)

Connect the UHF twin-lead wire to a combiner (not supplied). Connect the VHF twin-lead to the 300-75 ohm 

matching transformer (not supplied). Attach the transformer to the combiner. Attach the combiner to the antenna jack.

Separate VHF/UHF Antenna

Connect the 75 ohm cable from the VHF antenna and the UHF antenna twin-lead to a combiner (not supplied). 

Attach the combiner to the antenna jack.

NOTE:

 If your VHF antenna has a twin-lead wire, use the 300-75 ohm matching transformer (not supplied), 

then connect the transformer to the combiner.

For Subscribers to Basic Cable TV Service

For basic cable service not requiring a converter/descrambler box, connect the CATV 75 ohm coaxial cable 

directly to the antenna jack on the back of the television.

For Subscribers to Scrambled Cable TV Service

If you subscribe to a cable service which requires the use of a converter/descrambler box, connect the incoming 

cable to the converter/descrambler box and connect the output of the box to the antenna jack on the back of the 

television. Follow the connections shown left. Set the television to the output of the converter/descrambler box 

(usually channel 3 or 4) and use the converter/descrambler box to select channels.

For Subscribers to Unscrambled Basic Cable with Scrambled Premium Channels

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

the use of a converter/descrambler box, you may wish to use a two-set signal splitter (sometimes called a “two-set 

coupler”) and an A/B switch box from the cable installer or an electronics supply store. Follow the connections 

shown left. With the switch in the “B” position, you can directly tune any nonscrambled channels on your TV. With 

the switch in the “A” position, tune your TV to the output of the converter/descrambler box (usually channel 3 or 4) 

and use the box to tune scrambled channels.

TO USE AC POWER SOURCE

Use the AC polarized line cord provided for operation on AC. Insert the AC cord plug into a standard 120V 

60Hz polarized AC outlet.

NOTES:

1.  Never connect the AC line cord plug to other than  

  the specified voltage (120V 60Hz).    

 

  Use the attached power cord only.

2.  If the polarized AC cord does not fit into a non- 

  polarized AC outlet, do not attempt to file or cut the

  blade. It is the user’s responsibility to have an  

  electrician replace the obsolete outlet.

3.  If you cause a static discharge when touching the

  unit, and the unit fails to function, simply unplug the 

  unit from the AC outlet, wait a few minutes, and  

  plug it back in. The unit should return to normal  

  operation.
