Connect a composite video cable from the video output of the VCR to the desired VIDEO 1 or 2 input. Connect a composite video cable from the video OUT jack to the VCR video record input. Connect the left and right analog outputs from the VCR to the left/right audio IN jacks for the VIDEO 1 or 2 input selected above. Connect the left and right audio OUT jacks to the analog audio record inputs on the VCR. To use an outdoor antenna, connect its 300 ohm twin-conductor wire to the terminals in place of the loop antenna. NOTE: FM Antenna See Figure 3 The RX-1052 is supplied with a T-shaped indoor FM antenna. Connect the coax F-type plug to the FM antenna connector on the RX-1052. For best reception, unfold the T-shaped antenna. Eyelets at both ends of the T allow tacking the antenna to a wall, if desired. Experiment with positioning for best reception. Phono Turntable See Figure 5 Connect the left and right audio output cables of a turntable to the left/right RCA jacks labeled PHONO on the RX-1052. Connect the ground wire from your turntable to the phono ground lug, labeled GND. Be sure that no loose wire strands can touch adjacent wires or connectors. NOTE: To use an outdoor antenna, connect its 75 ohm coax lead wire to the FM connector instead of the indoor wire antenna, only after a professional contractor has installed the antenna system in accordance with local electrical codes.
