    i just built an hd antenna and i was scanning for new channels and it was picking up some awesome channels and then i tripped over the cord and busted that little adapter that converts a normal coax cable to the mini one that plugs into the tv tuner.

    anyone know the part number? I've looked everywhere online and can only find the partnumber for the antenna, not the adapter by itself. is this mini plug a standard? i even chatted with hp parts department and they were of no help. i can't find anything about it anywhere. and help would be great.

    anyone have a spare one? :p

    thanks!

    I think the part number might be 482900-001 or 482900-002. Not 100% sure though.. :)


    EDIT: Actually I think it is 501891-001. :) From a service guide:

    i'm getting some where. according to the drivers, the card is manufactuered by avermedia.

    in their accessories section above, this looks similar. however, when you google the connection type mentioned above, mmcx... it doesn't look the same.

    however, the connection type mmc, looks more similar, although it's got a thing of plastic in there. as shown below.
