3. Connecting the TV
Cable or VHF/UHF (or VHF only)
• It is strongly recommended that you connect the
antenna/cable input using a 75-ohm coaxial cable (not
supplied) to receive optimum picture quality. A
300-ohm twin lead cable can be easily affected by radio
frequency interference, resulting in signal degradation.
Cable and VHF/UHF (or VHF only)
If you want to watch both cable and antenna (over-
the-air) programming, you will need to use an
optional A-B RF Switch (not supplied) to switch
between the cable and over-the air antenna
programming, as shown.
You can also enjoy high definition programming by
subscribing to high definition cable service or high
definition satellite service. For the best possible
picture, connect these components to your TV via the
HDMI or component video (with audio) input on the
back of your TV.
Cable system and/or VHF/UHF
• Be sure to set Cable setting to Cable On or Cable
Off in Channel menu for the type of input signal you
choose (see page 30 for more details.).
