Basic (A) and Advanced (B).

connection. It is the easier of the two and additional accessories may not be

needed.

The advanced hookup shows the VCR hooked up to a monitor/receiver

(TV with audio and video jacks) using a signal splitter. This connection may

improve the picture quality as well as convenience of operation.
