Connecting to Equipments
How to get good reception
In general you are not required to change the existing antenna. However if your antenna
is not in good condition you should consider replacing it to ensure uninterrupted
digital television viewing.
Viewers in areas of poor analog reception may need specialists’ advice about antenna
requirements for digital reception in their area.
It s recommended that viewers use quad sh'ielded cable from the antenna to the television.

There are several ways of connecting your STB receiver to the TV and Hi-Fi System. For
high definition viewing your TV must support either 576p, 720p or 1080i resolution. Also
the connection between the STB receiver and TV must be YPbPr component or HDMI.
Other connections will provide standard definition viewing.
