Acombination antenna
receives normal broadcast
channels (VHF 2-13 and UHF
14-69). Your connection is easy
since there is only one 75_
(ohm) antenna jack on the
back of your TV -and that's
where the antenna goes.
_lf your antenna has a
round connector (75_2),
then you're ready to connectit
to the TV. Go to step 2.
If your antenna has fiat
twin-lead wire (300D), you
first need to attach the antenna
wires to the screws on a 300
to 75£2adapter (not supplied).
_Push the round end of
the adapter (or cable) onto
the ANT(enna) IN jack on
the back of the TV. If the
round end of the adapter or
cable is threaded, screw it
down tight.
