????? (CSSA):

My JVC came with one of these for the antenna connection. I believe its called an N connector. MCM sells adapters, N to F connector, so does Radio Shack.

This is a 'N' connector:

They are used for higher power & frequencies than what he posted, and are not compatible. They were used at 4 GHz on early C-band satellite LNAs as well as a lot of commercial and military communications equipment.

They are constant impedance, and come in 50 and 75 ohm versions. A

50 ohm plug will damage a 75 ohm jack, due to the different diameters of the center conductor.
You can't fix stupid. You can't even put a Band-Aid? on it, because it's Teflon coated.

Some are totally illiterate, Roy.

Penicillin is good for that.

Got a reference for that? I don't see it.

Didn't find them when I searched. I found a lot of hits on "HDE-15 connector" but none actually said that that's what it was. I've always heard of them as DE-15s ("D" ==D-Subminiture, "E" == size of the shell (identical to a DE-9), "15" being the number of connections).

DE-9),

Certainly. I can't convince the others at work that they are really DE-9s. I have one that'll run in production next week that's a circuit board that sits in the back shell of a DE-9 connector. Everyone calls it a DB-9 dongle. Oh, well, in all the documentation it's called a DE-9. Let 'em be confused. ;-)

Tell them that DB means 'Dumb Bunnies', and there must be nine of them in production. ;-)

I just got a spam report from Earthlink. Apparently 'it' is still mailing threats and doesn't understand that I'll never see anything more than the subject line in those reports, since Earthlink deletes them before they can hit my inbox.
