irst let's connect your Antenna
or Cable TV signal to your TV.
This will be easy since there is only
one 75D antenna plug on the back
of your TV- and that's where the
antenna goes.
[ BEGIN ]
<_IF your antenna (or CABLE TV
signal) has a round cable (75 ohm)
with a metal prong (F-connector)
on the end, then you're ready to
connect it to the TV.
IF your antenna has flat twin-lead
wire (300ohm), you first need to
attach the antenna wires to the
screws on an optional adapter
(300 to 75 ohm).
(,_ Push the round end of the
adapter (or cable) onto the
ANTENNA plug on the rear of the
TV. If the round end of the cable
connector is threaded, screw it
down tight. 0
