our TV has two sepa-
rate ANT(enna)/Cable
inputs on the rear of the
set. These two signal
inputs offer convenient
hook-up options for both
normal TV program view-
ing and Picture-In-Picture
(PIP) features.
The ANT(enna) A input is
intended for use and view-
ing on the TV’s main
screen. Your home’s pri-
mary Antenna, or Cable
TV signal, should be con-
nected to this input for
normal TV setup, use and
feature operation.
The ANT(enna) B input is
a second, or auxiliary sig-
nal source, designed to

Remember,
be sure to set the
TV for the type sig-
nal you've connect-
ed (see "SETUP"
on page 2 of this
Guide.)
Your TV can set
itself to select only
the channel numbers
on your Cable sys-
tem (see “Setup"
page 2). If you use a
Cable Converter box,
set the TV to the
same channel as the
converter's CH 3/4
switch (on the rear of
the converter.)

A typical ANT(enna)
A and B connection (using a
common signal source and an
optional Signal Splitter):
If your Antenna or Cable TV
signal has a round cable con-
nector (75 ohm) on the end,
then you're ready to connect it
to the 75ohm Signal Splitter.
If your antenna has flat twin-
lead wire (300 ohm), you first
need to attach the antenna wires
to the screws on a 300 to 75
ohm adapter before connecting
to the 75ohm Signal Splitter.
Connect your Antenna or
Cable TV signal to the single
75 ohm input plug on the two-
way Signal Splitter (optional).
Then connect two lengths of RF
Coaxial Cable to the two Output
plugs on the two-way Signal
Splitter (F-type connector on
both ends).
