Note
It is strongly recommended to connect the antenna using a 75-
ohm coaxial cable to get optimum picture quality. A 300-ohm
twin lead cable can be easily affected by radio noise and the like,
resulting in signal deterioration. If you use a 300-ohm twin lead
cable, keep it away as far as possible from the TV.
Cable box connections
Use this hookup if:
•You subscribe to a cable TV system that uses
scrambled or encoded signals requiring a cable
box to view all channels, and
•You do not intend to hook up any other audio or
video equipment to your TV.
1 Connect the coaxial connector from your cable
service to the cable box’s IN jack.
2 Using the supplied 75-ohm coaxial cable,
connect the cable box’s OUT jack to the TV’s
VHF/UHF jack.
Also, set “Cable” to “On” in the
(Channel)
menu (See page 21).
Tips
• Your Sony remote control can be programmed to operate your
cable box (See “Programming the remote control” on page
34).
• To change channels using the cable box, set your TV to
channel 3 or 4 depending on the cable box channel output.
• If you will be controlling all channel selection through your
cable box, consider using the Channel Fix feature to set your
TV to channel 3 or 4 (See page 22).
