Hi
I just moved into a new flat, I noticed there is a small satellite dish and there are 2 coaxial cables running through the wall. I decided to buy a satellite receiver and see if it worked. I got a humax PVR-9300T the cables were not long enough to reach the receiver so i bought an extension.
First of all, why is there is 2 cables? i'm guessing this is for having 2 setups?
The extension cable has a screw connector on the end, but the humax has a push on connection, so i decided to buy an adapter (f-screw to push on) but i can't push it on, the circumference of the adapter is too small for the humax input.
Now that i'm thinking about it, i should have just bought a normal adapter and fitted it to the cable myself, but which adapter is it that i need because i am somewhat confused about this now.
thanks for your help.
