What adapters do I need to use to connect the outside antenna up with the wilson 400 low loss coax cable? (I upgraded to the dir. antenna)

- Wilson 400 cable is a 50 ohm cable and is not designed to work with the 460101 system. If the directional antenna you purchased has a Type N connector then that antenna is a 50 ohm antenna as well, and is not designed to work as an outdoor antenna with this system.. RG6, 75 ohm, cable is the only approved cable.. Just use good quality RG6 and you should be fine, but use an outside antenna with a Type F connector. If you cable run from inside to outside is excessively long, I believe RG11 would be a more appropriate cable, but I would stay with RG6 unless you are over 100 ft plus. Unless you are using a different Wilson system that what you commented on...Some did use 50 ohm cable in and out..

I can't be of much assistance. Our system uses Wilson's uni-directional external mounted on a 30-foot mast. From there it connects, via coaxial cable to an amplifier inside the home and then to an internal antenna.

Looks like you need an SMA male to BMC female adapter. Your new antenna might be a little much for the poor little SMA connector on the Wouxun. With that being said, some good sources would be: dxengineering.com (Part Number DMN-BNCJ-SMAP. Price ~$10.) Powerwertx.com (Part Number RF-8382. Price ~$6.00.) Allied Electronics - alliedelec.com (Part Number 70198126. Price ~$11.00.)Hope that helps. There are many other vendors the can help your needs.

Verify the antenna connections, it may need adapters, otherwise it's universal. The iSimple website can help.

The signal goes to the antenna jack. Use RG6 coax. You can buy pre-made cables almost anywhere. Even here, probably.

I used a long coaxial cable that I had left over from a previous cable installation. The cable is NOT included with the antenna.

The antenna has a balun built in so you can connect your coax directly to it. It also has a second connector to connect a VHF antenna.

A 69 Dollar discone off Amazon will do nicely. Get it up 40 feet and you're set. Use a 50 foot run of RG8X coax or if you have money RG213. Don't forget the correct coax ends to match the radio and the antenna. Do NOT use adapters!

To whom it may benefit. One needs a RG59U coaxial cable for hook up. You can get a antenna pole at Radio Shack and guy wire for tie downs. At Radio Shack get a in line ground block for a grounding pipe-copper stake. Remember, the higher the antenna obviously more stations you'll get. Yours Truly, Gary

What I did was go to Home Depot and buy a threaded 1" O.D. pipe. I also got an adapter there that steps the 1" up to 1 1/8" or 1/14"...either is okay. I then bought a rubber union with two hose clamps attached to it. I inserted the 1" pipe into the adapter, and the adapter into the rubber union. I fastened one clamp on the adapter, the other end onto the 1+1/2" antenna mast. I bought silver paint to match the mast and the parts....and the black rubber union. Paited it all, hooked the antenna up to the 1" pipe...Voila...done!

If you have the very old screw-type antenna leads, you will need; http://www.amazon.com/Philips-SWV2020-17-Balun-Transformer/dp/B000HSITJO/ref=pd_bbs_6?ie=UTF8&s=electronics&qid=1236529682&sr=8-6 This would bring you to a coaxial cable connection. If you have a coaxial cable connection on your television already, you won't need the adapter ( first product link.) To connect AV ( three RCA cables, yellow-video,red and white audio ) you will need a video switch/RF modulator; http://www.amazon.com/Philips-PH-61153-Automatic-Selector-Modulator/dp/B000165AOY/ref=pd_bbs_1?ie=UTF8&s=electronics&qid=1236529894&sr=8-1 This should get you up and going. The first link is something you should be able to find at your local radio shack for the same price, or cheaper. The second product is a good price: free shipping, and no sales tax when bought directly from amazon. Note: I do not own this product, but I have connected AV connections in a similar fashion with successful results for many relatives in the past. Good Luck! Christopher

You will need 9. I don't see a t adapter. You could install it an run some coax cable but timeconsuming. YYou'd do better just to add this antenna to each set.

Yes. However there is a 50/50 chance you will need an adapter. Wilson is changing their connectors.

For me the antenna is fine, but it's connector is a coaxial standard . You should check the receiver specifications, especially resistance (usually 75 ohms) and then you can connect any standard antenna that meets those specifications.

If you buy the TV with the external Antenna and adapter as the combination. If you didn't buy the bundle, the adapter that works is ; RF coaxial coax cable assembly MCX male to F female 6''

I have the BNC male to SMA coax adaptor. Just go to the Amazon page that has the Mini Magnet antenna you want to use and scroll down a bit. You will see the adaptor. $4.95 I believe is the price. Hope this helps.

If you have cable, you hook it up just like you would any TV with the coaxial cable. If you do not have cable, you will need a coaxial adapter that will allow the leads from an antenna to be connected to a 75ohm converter to connect to the unit. The unit does not have screws for an antenna connection.
