Watching TV

Simple operations for watching a TV program

Antennas

To enjoy a clearer picture, use an outdoor antenna. The following is a brief explanation of the types of connections
that are used for a coaxial cable. If your outdoor antenna uses a 75-ohm coaxial cable with an F-type connector,
plug it into the antenna terminal at the rear of the AVC System.

NOTE

• The antenna and the cable converter cannot be connected at the same time.

1. A 75-ohm system is generally a round cable with F-type

connector that can easily be attached to a terminal without
tools (Commercially available).

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
adapter (Commercially available).

F-type connector

75-ohm coaxial cable (round)

300-ohm twin-lead cable (flat)

Be sure to connect the antenna or the cable converter as follows. Signal reception may fail if improperly connected.
• Be sure to remember what kind of connection is made with your System.
• The connection type will determine whether to select “Air” or “Cable” for both ANT-A and B when configuring “Air/Cable”

settings.

• Shown here is the preferred method of connecting a VCR and CATV Converter to your TV if you are in an area with good

signal reception. This way you can view either TV programs or VCR tapes and not be concerned about the position of the
VCR’s TV/VCR switch and you can enjoy stereo tape playback from a stereo VCR.
