Step 2: Hookup
Although you can use either an indoor or outdoor
antenna with your projection TV, we recommend that
you connect an outdoor antenna or a cable TV system
to get better picture quality.
Connecting an antenna
Connect your antenna cable to the VHF/UHF antenna
terminal. If you cannot connect your antenna cable
directly to the terminal, follow one of the instructions
below depending on your cable type.
A
75-ohm coaxial cable
• VHF only
or
• VHF/UHF
or
• Cable
B
300-ohm twin lead cable
• VHF only
or
• UHF only
or
• VHF/UHF
Antenna connector
75-ohm coaxial cable
C
• VHF
and
• UHF
300-ohm twin lead cable
Notes
• Most VHF/UHF combination antennas have a signal splitter.
Remove the splitter before attaching the appropriate connector.
• If you use the U/V mixer, snow and noise may appear in the
picture when viewing cable TV channels over 37.
