If it's not usually done, I'm game. My newest TV (1988 Zenith model SE5535G console) does not have screw terminals, but the original owners modded it with a knife switch fitted with the antenna wire you speak of, and a 300-75 ohm matching transformer at the other end. I'm leaving it there as part of the set's history, and perhaps to use as a device signal switch. I was told that the set was never hooked to cable; perhaps the original owners had indoor and roof antennas.
