ABSTRACT:
A VHF television tuner circuit is adapted for selecting a channel from a plurality of VHF television channels and a UHF/VHF converted television channel, by mechanical selection to form a resonant circuit having electrical characteristics corresponding to the selected channel. The tuner circuit is coupled to a VHF television signal terminal and a UHF/VHF converted television signal terminal. The tuner circuit comprises a channel selection means including a first switch and a second switch each comprising movable contacts fixedly positioned on a channel selection shaft and stationary contacts corresponding to the selectable channel positions and positioned in proximity to the movable contacts for coaction therewith. The first switch comprises a movable/stationary contact combination positioned in the vicinity of the VHF television signal terminal and responsive to selection of the UHF/VHF converted channel position for being grounded for electrostatically shielding the VHF television signal terminal. The second switch comprises a movable/stationary contact combination responsive to selection of the UHF/VHF converted channel position for connecting the UHF/VHF converted television signal terminal to the radio frequency amplifier.
