Portable TVs with built antennas

seminolegirl · 06-24-2009, 11:52 AM

I have two small tvs that I use in my kitchen and bathroom. They are the same model and neither one of them have a coaxial receptacle on the back that you can attach the cable from the box to. They show a connection that says EXT ANT 75 omh They look more like something that you would plug into ... like earphone jacks. Is there an antennae that you could make this connection to from the box.

You're going to need a 75 ohm to 300 ohm connector like the one pictured in this post http://www.dtvusaforum.com/converter...html#post16943

Are you wanting to connect a converter box to it?

seminolegirl, Welcome to the DTVUSA Forum. A simple solution is to purchase these 2 connectors from Radio Shack or other electronics supply house. Disregard the coaxial cable in the picture. The first connector adapts coaxial cable to RCA and the second adapter is RCA to phone plug. The phone plug connects to the earphone similar antenna jack.
