Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.
This device contains a digital television tuner, so it should receive digital over the
air TV programming, with a suitable antenna, after the end of full-power analog
TV broadcasting in the United States on February 17, 2009. Some older television
receivers, if they rely on a TV antenna, will need a TV Converter to receive over
the air digital pro-gramming, but should continue to work as before for other
purposes (e.g., for watching low-power TV stations still broadcasting in analog,
watching pre-recorded movies, or playing video games).
For more information,
call the FCC at 1-888-CALL-FCC (1-888-225-5322)
government coupons that may be used toward the purchase
or call the NTIA at 1-888-DTV-2009.
AVISO RELATIVO A LA TRANSICIÓN A TELEVISIÓN DIGITAL
Este equipo incorpora un sintonizador de televisión digital, lo que le permitirá
recibir una programación digital televisada por aire, con una antena adecuada,
cuando se terminará la transmisión de alta potencia de la televisión analógica en
los Estados Unidos el 17 de febrero de 2009. Ciertos receptores de televisión
antiguos, si dependen de una antena de TV, necesitarán un conversor de TV
para recibir por el aire una programación digital, pero seguirán funcionando como
antes para otros usos (por ejemplo para ver emisoras de TV de baja potencia que
todavía transmiten en analógico, para ver películas pregrabadas, o para utilizar
sus videojuegos).
Para obtener más información,

information with respect to proper grounding of the mats and supporting
structure grounding of the lead-in wire to an antenna-discharge unit, size of
grounding connectors, location of antenna-discharge unit, connection to
grounding electrodes and requirements for the grounding electrode. See
Figure below.
EXAMPLE OF ANTENNA GROUNDING AS PER NATIONAL ELECTRICAL
CODE
Note to the CATV system installer: This reminder is provided to call the
CATV system installer’s attention to Article 820-40 of the NEC that provides
