Antenna Connection
TO CABLE TV (CATV)
• A 75-ohm coaxial cable connector is built into the set for easy hook up. When connecting the
75-ohm coaxial cable to the set, screw the 75-ohm cable to the ANT. terminal.
• Some cable TV companies offer “premium pay channels . Since the signals of these premium
pay channels are likely to be scrambled, a cable TV converter/descrambler is generally
provided to the subscriber by the cable TV company. This converter/descrambler is
necessary to watch scrambled channels normally. (Set your TV to channel 3 or 4 as one of
them is generally used. If the channel is unknown, consult your cable TV company.) For more
specific instructions on installing cable TV, consult your cable TV company. Please note: an
SPLITTER provided with two inputs ( A and B ) is required (not supplied).
Position on the RF switch (not supplied) : You can view all unscrambled channels by using
the keys for TV channels.
Position on the RF switch (not supplied) : You can view the scrambled channels via
converter / descrambler by using its channel keys.

Connections
TO WALL ANTENNA SOCKET
If there is a wall antenna socket in apartment house, connect the antenna cable as shown
below. (Use the type of antenna cable corresponding to that of wall antenna socket.)
For good quality of image, the antenna requirements of color television reception are more
strict than those of black & white television reception. Thus, it is strongly recommended to use
good outdoor antenna.
The following is a brief explanation of the type of connections that are provided with the
various antenna systems.
1. A 75-ohm system is generally a round cable with F-type connector that can be easily
attached to a terminal without tools (not supplied).
2. A 300-ohm system is a flat “twin-lead cable that can be attached to a 75-ohm terminal
through a 300-75-ohm antenna converter (not supplied).
• If you have a 75-ohm round cable, insert bronze wire and then tighten connecting nut. If you
have a 300-ohm flat cable, connect twisted wire to antenna converter and then connect the
converter to ANT IN.
• When using 75-ohm round cable, do not bend bronze. It may cause poor picture quality.
