TV Antennae Connection. Ask questions and find answers to many subjects relating to electrics and electrical work

[DarrenB]

I have purchased a new Antennae for my television signal. I know how to connect to the television itself, but my problem is at the business end. How do I connect the coaxial cable to the aerial itself?? The connection of the main core is pretty self explanatory but I have no idea about connecting the 'other' bit. Can anybody help??? Does anybody know of a site that could explain?? Many Thanks.

Hi darrenb
braid of co-ax is turned back over sheath & trapped under metal gripper as this connects to PC board via its screws,
core goes as you say to connector. Make sure no strands off braid touch centre term.
