Making Connections
Connecting directly to a cable or
an antenna
The connection you choose will depend on
the cable found in your home. Newer homes
will be equipped with standard coaxial cable
(see
A
); older homes will probably have 300 -
ohm twin lead cable (see
B
); still other
homes may contain both (see
C
).
Use 75-ohm coaxial cable for improved
picture quality (see
A
).
