How to Hook Rabbit Ears to a TV With No Cable
- 1). Connect a coaxial cable into the "Out" port on the back of the digital converter box. This box is going to act just like a cable box. Once connected you change your channels through the converter box remote and not the TV's.
- 2). Plug the other end of the cable into the "In" port on the back of the television. If you have an older television this may be the only port actually on the TV. It is a single, circular port with a small hole directly in the middle of it.
- 3). Plug the rabbit ears antenna into the "In" port of the digital converter box.
- 4). Power on both the television and the digital converter box. Adjust the television to either channel 3 or 4 (depending on what the default station is for the TV). You should begin to see content on the TV screen.
- 5). Adjust the rabbit ears to better receive local TV broadcasts.
