A combination antenna receives normal broadcast channels (VHF 2-13 and UHF 14-69). Your connection is easy since there is only one 75
Ω
(ohm) antenna plug on the back of your TV - and that’s where the antenna goes.
1 If your antenna has a round end (75 ohm), then you're ready to connect it to the TV.
If your antenna has flat twin-lead wire (300 ohm), you first need to attach the antenna wires to the screws on a 300 to 75 ohm adapter.
