Hello Smac,This is What I ordered and has worked good so far "RG6 RG59 Connector Waterproof Connectors Crimping Tool" here is the linkhttp://www.amazon . com/gp/product/B0050N0S36/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o08_s00?ie=UTF8&psc;=1

You probaably could use that cable, but i thinks its overkill, RG-6 coax would suffice

Yes, you are correct, there is no connecter for coax, however, fluke networks makes an adapter kit that will adapt you from rj11 to rg6 coax and from rg6 you can find adapters to adapt you to whatever coax you are working with. I checked, amazon carries the fluke-ADAP-PTNX-kit adapter kit that would provide the adapters you are looking for. Also you can use the alligator clips that are supplied with the pro 3000 and clip to the center conductor or outer shield and tone it out that way. Hope this has answered your question.

Yes, they will work on RG59, but you should use to RG6 if you can; better for digital signal now or in the future. Use a universal cutter / stripping tool for trimming cable. However, please note that the conventional compression tool will not work with this style of connector. You will need to purchase the Snap-N-Seal tool F as they state in the Product Description.

Yes it will work. Honestly if your only doing rg6 quad compression connectors I would recommend a more specific tool as with this one you need to adjust with the threaded point. I later purchased one from ideal that usues diffrent tips for diffrent connectors

This tool only compresses the connectors, a stripping tool is necessary for removing the outer jacket. Try searching for a "cable prep" tool, hope that helps.

As a rule of thumb (contrary to popular belief) RG59 CAN be used for lengths up to around 125'. RG6 can be used for lengths up to 200' and RG11 to lengths of 400'. These do assume a solid copper center conductor, and at least 60% braid on the shield to reduce the resistance in the wire (Ohms Law). The lower the quality of coax cable and connector - the shorter the run may be. The bottom line is that the LNB receive at least 13Volts for Odd Transponders, and ~15/16V for Even.

You need one of these on each end, unless you have a modem/router than has a built in output. The one we have from Uverse does, so we only need it on the far end. You should use RG-6 coax. Ours is in the house, so I can tell you anything about burial depth. The units simply act as a long ethernet cable, extending the range of your wired network.

Yes RG8 coax will do it, of coarse if you run alot of power you would want to upgrade to RG213---I run RG8 on my base and it seems to be holding up but I am going to upgrade to RG213 because I run an amp--Good Luck and happy Broadcasting .

I didn't have any problems with it. I used a FireStik and pre-terminated coax. Worked great.

All inputs and outputs that I have used are RCA type jacks and pin jacks. I have not tried coaxial.

NO... Don't forget you need at least 18' (not shorter, but can be longer) of RG-58U to make this work, it is a requrement of the antenna system to make it work properly. The coax is part of this antenna system design.

It will work with RG59 and RG6 and RG6Q. However the compression F Connectors included with this kit are for RG6. You can purchase RG59 compression connectors at many supply stores or Amazon.

Thanks for asking. This is definitely not coax. I don't know what this is. It big and has 19 pins in there. I must have another one I ordered with coax. I'm getting mixed up with all these cables Im ordering. This one is something I never saw before. It has 19 pins arranged in a hexagonal pattern. Do you know what this is?

Well, I just ordered a coaxil cable two-way splitter (listen to the techie here, lol!) The guy at Best Buy told me to somehow get the antenna hooked into the recorder/player AND the tv. He said we didn't need that channel 3. Wish me luck. I just may have something. I'll let you know! - Linda

that will depend on the overall length of the connector before and after compression. But honestly, the outer diameter of a BNC is much greater than F so I'm doubting this tool is able to handle them without an adaptor of some kind.

I bought this kit Klein Tools VDV002-818 Coax Installation and Testing Kit, from Amazon. The connectors are F-type. Works great with HD. Whatever connectors u buy, u will probably need a special crimp tool. This kit is perfect. Good luck. Enjoy
