Some cable or satellite companies do not offer local or network channels (such as ABC, NBC, CBS and syndication stations such as UPN or CW). Therefore, a separate antenna is required if you wish to view those channels. TV antenna wire carries the signal from the television to the antenna. Correct installation of the right amount of TV antenna wire can provide you with better reception. For the purpose of this article, the antenna is already installed, and it is just a matter of installing and hooking up the antenna wire.
Instructions
1. Disconnect the power source to the TV.
2. Locate the spot on the antenna where the wire will be connected. (See Tips for more information.)
3. Attach the connector wires either to the antenna itself, or to the connector (depending on which type you have—see Tips for more information). Make sure the screws are tight enough to allow for a true connection, but not so tight that wires or other components are crimped, pinched or otherwise compromised.
4. Run the antenna wire from where it has been connected to the antenna to the TV.
5. Locate the receptacle on the back of the TV where the antenna wire would be attached.
6. Repeat Step 3 to attach the antenna wire to the TV.
7. Restore power, turn the TV on, and make any adjustments to the antenna that may be necessary in order to receive the strongest signal.
8. Enjoy your TV!
