Dumb question, how do I hookup rabbit ears to my TV?

Here's what I have, everything was purchased in 1998-2000:
Toshiba 27" Cinema Series TV
RCA DirecTV Receiver
Amplified RCA Rabbit Ears

The TV is in a very tight spot on a huge entertainment center very close to the wall so visibility is slim.

What plugs go into what holes to get all 3 working together in perfect harmony?
 
The direct receiver should at the very least have rca plugs on them. You just need a set of rca cables and match the colors up on the box and the tv. It may also have component video (three rca plugs just for video instead of one), svideo, or digital audio ouit, an rca type outlet or fiber optic type output. Your best bet will be the rca outs with one for video, and two for audio. The rabbit ears are the easiest since they are normally just coaxial out. It just goes into the coax video input on the tv. I am assuming you know what all these cables are. If not just go to best buy, buy a set of rcas and a coaxial cable, and then just plug stuff in until it works.
