    Hey, I'm installing an internal TV tuner to my IFL90.

    I know there are two antenna ports on the right side, however Its not a typical cable jack. I need an adapter obviously, although I have little idea what kinda port that is and what I need.

    What adapter will I need to connect a typical coaxial cable?

    MCX to COAX.

    MCX stands for mini coaxial. That adapter should work fine.

    I searched and searched but I still can't seem to find a connector for this.
    The one I posted above was not the correct connector. From what I've figured out I need a F MCX to a F Coaxial, but my search has come up with nothing.

    Has anyone had any luck finding these things?
