Identify the type of cable from your antenna. If it is
a round cable as illustrated, it is a 75 ohm coaxial
antenna cable. This cable will connect directly to
the jack marked ANT.IN on your DVD+VCR.

If your antenna lead wire is a flat type antenna cable,
connect it to a 300-ohm to 75-ohm Antenna Adapter
(not supplied), and slip the Adapter onto the ANT.IN
jack. The Adapter does not screw on to the DVD+VCR,
it just slips over the jack.
Without Cable Box
If your cable wire is connected to your TV without a converter
or descrambler box, unscrew the wire from your TV and attach
it to the ANT.IN jack on the DVD+VCR. Use the supplied coaxi-
al cable to connect between the DVD+VCR’s RF.OUT jack and
the 75 ohm antenna input jack on the TV. With this connection,
you can receive all midband, super band, and hyperband chan-
nels.
