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 TV set.
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).
