How do I Connect a DTT 901 to a VCR?
The DTT901 is a digital-to-analog converter box manufactured by Zenith used for capturing broadcast television signals and transforming them into signals that can be played on older TV sets. Hooking up a VCR between the DTT901 and the TV makes it possible to record shows on tape, or merely use the VCR as a pass-through component for watching TV. Coaxial cables with a threaded coupler on each end are needed to complete the connections.
