ANTENNA/CABLE

CONNECTIONS

DIPOLE ANTENNA HOOK UP

1. Push the stem of the Dipole Antenna (accessory)

into the hole for antenna at the back of TV/VCR.

2. Connect the flat twin-lead cable from the Dipole

Antenna to the 300/75 ohm Matching Adapter
(accessory).

3. Plug the Matching Adapter to ANT terminal of

TV/VCR as shown in drawing.

For the best reception, extend the Dipole Antenna
and adjust its length and position. (Avoid handling
the top section when making adjustments.)

NOTE:

If it is difficult to get good reception with

the indoor antenna, the use of an outdoor antenna is
recommended. Before an outdoor antenna is connect-
ed to the set, the indoor antenna should be discon-
nected.

CABLE WITHOUT CONVERTER/
DESCRAMBLER BOX

Use this connection if your cable system connects
directly to your TV/VCR without a converter box.
By using this connection you can:
1) Use the TV/VCR remote to select channels.
2) Program one or more unscrambled channels for

Automatic Timer Recording.

NOTE:

This unit will ONLY record and view the

same channel.

VHF/UHF SEPARATE ANTENNAS

In some areas it will be necessary to use an outdoor
antenna.

VHF/UHF COMBINED ANTENNA

A VHF UHF 75 ohm combination antenna can be
connected to ANT terminal.

Note to CATV system installer:

This reminder is provided to call the CATV system installer’s attention to Article 820-40 of the NEC that
provides guidelines for proper grounding and, in particular, specifies that the cable ground shall be connect-
ed to the grounding system of the building as close to the point of cable entry as practical.
