Does anyone know what this is called?
I have an external digital tuner box with an F connector for the RF out.
I soldered an F connector to a RCA mini plug, for the TV.
You have to lever it up, and hold it there, to get it to work.
There is no room in the set to install an internal F connector.
So I have to find the correct plug, or adapter.
Thanks

I just looked at my genuine Sony car antenna. It has a plug that looks like a 3.5 mm phone plug. It's an early model, so it was made for the Sony B/W sets.
I bought a phone to F connector at R/S. It's seems to work on all my sets, including the jelly-bean sets.
