Cables Connections and explanation:
Over-the-air TV broadcasts are used to receive TV signals.
1. Connect antenna to RF input on DTV converter box.
2. Connect audio/video (yellow, white, red) cables from the composite outputs on the DTV converter box to the DVD Recorder's composite A/V INPUTS. The proper input is selected using the DVD Recorder's remote control input select button when recording.

5. Connect RF coaxial cable from VCR RF output to TV RF input.
