Chapter 2 : Connecting an Antenna or Cable to Your TV
Antennas with two sets of leads
You might have two sets of leads from your antenna system, especially if you have one antenna for
VHF signals and one antenna for UHF signals.
If your antenna system has both a coaxial lead and twin 300-ohm leads,
you must obtain a
combiner (available at your local electronics store). Press or screw the coaxial lead onto the
combiner; place the twin leads underneath the screws on the combiner and tighten the screws. Press
the cable from combiner onto the antenna terminal on the back of your TV.
If your antenna system has two sets of twin 300-ohm leads,
you must obtain a combiner (available
at your local electronics store). Place one set of twin leads underneath the screws on the combiner
and tighten the screws. Do the same with the other set of twin leads. Press the cable from the
combiner onto antenna terminal on the back of your TV.
Connecting a cable system
If your cable set-up is not described below, please
contact your cable company for more information.
If your cable system does not require the use of a
cable box,
simply press or screw the incoming
cable onto the antenna terminal on the back your
TV.
