list all the channels as you receive them in your home, for example:
Channel 34 Arts and Entertainment Network
Channel 35 Turner Network Television
Channel 36 ESPN
5. Now you're ready to assign your local channels to VCR Plus+ channels in the VCR's memory.
The way you do this depends on how your VCR is hooked up to the incoming RF signal. Decide
which hookup you have from the diagrams below, and follow the setup instructions for your type
of hookup.
Hint: Try several practice recordings after doing your channel setup. You should get the same
channels as you usually watch at home.
• Home antenna or Cable (no cable box)
• Cable with a cable box
• Cable with a cable box and splitter
Home Antenna
If your VCR is connected directly to your home antenna, chances are you don't have to do any
