NOTE. Most video systems use 75 ohm cabling. The oscilloscope
inputs do not properly terminate low impedance cabling. To avoid
amplitude inaccuracy from improper loading and reflec tions, place a

or equivalent) between the 75 ohm coaxial cable from the signal
source and the oscilloscope BNC input.
