Antenna/Cable TV General Information
You can use either an indoor or outdoor antenna to receive VHF and/or UHF channels.
Channels 2- 13 are VHF channels, and channels 14- 69 are UHF channels.
We recommend using an outdoor antenna for better picture quality.
You can receive Cable TV by connecting the cable supplied by your local cable company.
Cable TV delivers both VHF and UHF channels and other channels not available to your antenna.
Shown below are two basic types of antenna cables.
Signalsfrom a home antenna may be conveyed by either
type. Cable TV signals will always be conveyed by a 75
ohm coaxial cable.
1A 75 ohm coaxial cable is generally a round cable
with an F-type connector that can easily be attached
to a terminal without tools.
F-type connector (Not supplied)
!
2A 300 ohm cable-is a flat "twin-lead" cable that can
be attached to a terminal using an antenna adapter
supplied as an accessory.
There are two separate 75 ohm F-type connector termi-
nals and a converter output terrainal as shown below.
ANT(750.)_
ANT-1 OUT ANT-2
The ANT-1 and ANT-2 terminals; are for connecting a
VHF/UHF antenna or a cable TV system. The signal,
which is input through the ANT-1 term-inal, isalso output
from the OUT terminal whenever the=_ntenna input is set
to the ANT 2 mode. You can svdtch between-the ANT 1
and ANT 2 modes by pressing the ANT 1/2 button on the
Remote Control or the ANTNIDEO button ,on the TV. See
page 16.

Notes:
* Generally, the incoming (;able for a Cable TV system can be connected directly to the TV antenna t(_rminal just like a
home antenna connection. You will be able to receive unscrambled cable channels. *
• You can connect another source such as a home antenna or video game to the ANT-2 terminal.
Some cable companies offer "premium pay channels;". Since the signals of these premium pay channels are scram-
bled, a cable TV converter/decoder is generally provided to the subscriber by the cable TV company. This decoder box
is necessary for normal viewing the scrambled channels. For more specific instructions on installing €:able TV, consult
your cable TV company.
You can choose between viewing unscrambled channels Cable
and scrambled channels by pressing the ANT 1/2 but[on or lead-in
the ANT/VIDEO butto-n. See page 16.
All channels including the unscrambled channels will come
through the ANT-1 terminal when the "ANT 1" mode is
selected.
All channels including the scrambled channels from the
decoder box will come through the ANT-2 terminal when
the "ANT 2_ mode is selected. Select channel 3 or 4 on
your TV to match yourconverter's output channel and
select channels usin_q th-e-converter's channel keys.

Antenna/Cable TV and VCR Connections
After antenna cable connections are made, you are still required to connect the VCR using a video/audio connecting
cables for (stereo) playback of good quality from the VCR. See page 38.

efore Using the Remote Control
With this Remote Control, you can operate your TV and
most models of remote-controlled VCR's and Cable -i"V
converters even if they are different brands.
However, this Remote Control must be programmed to
control other brands of VCR's and/or converters. If you
will be using your TV set with a TOSHIBA VCR, your
Remote Control has already been preprogrammed for
you.
•Before attempting to operate your Remote Control,
_-nstall the batteries according to the section "Installing
and replacing batteries" shown below.
•/:or more detailed instructions, see the section "Pro-
gramming the Remote Control" on page 11.
Notes:
•After installing new batteries, the Remote Control will
set itself to the codes for TOSHIBA's TV and VCR. If
you are using the Remote Control to operate equip-
ment that uses different codes, it will have to bE;
reprogrammed for those codes.
• This Remote Control may have functions not available
on the original remote control.
• These functions may or may not operate your VCR or
Cable TV converter. Refer to the owr, er's manuals
supplied with the equipment to see which functions
are available.
• The remote control supplied with your VCR or Cable
TV convertermay have keys not duplicated on this
Remote Control. If these functions are desired, the
original remote control will have to be used. ,
