Hook up DIAGRAM - TV, DTV Converter boxes, VCR
Cables Connections and explanation:
A VHF/UHF antenna is used to receive digital TV broadcasts. The input signal is split using a standard signal splitter. If splitting the signal causes problems with reception, then a signal booster may be required or another solution would be to use two antennas.
1. Connect a RF coaxial cable (RG-6) from each of the splitter Outs to the RF Input (ANT In) on each of the DTV converter boxes.
2. One Converter box will use RF Out and the other will use Audio/Video Outs. Connect RF coaxial cable from DTV box (Out to TV) to TV RF Ant Input. Connect the other DTV box A/V Out to the Audio/Video inputs on VCR.
3. VCR will use audio/video OUT to the TV audio/video inputs.
