Here's the deal.

The Fahnestock clips are for a conventional longwire antenna and ground lead.

The screw terminals were intended for use with Philco's All-Wave Antenna System. Using the screw terminals eliminated the need for a balun. The impedance of the screw terminal input is as Terry said...but don't try to use an old TV antenna in place of the Philco All-Wave Antenna as it won't pick up very much signal.
