Question:

How to fix RF connector?

I have a Sony KV-24FS100 and the place where you plug the antennae RF in is broken. My tuner is 100% good and I am happy with my TVs performance, so I don't want to replace the tuner or the TV. Everything else is in perfect condition except the place where you plug the RF in. Is there any way I can fix it? The place where there were threads is gone, all that's left is a small circular tube, the size of the connector thing that's a little behind where the thing used to be. If you can, please, at least tell what its called. Your help, would be very very appreciated. Thank You.

Answer:

It's called a Type F connector. The one on the TV would be a panel mount female Type F connector. The parts are inexpensive. Replacing it will take a bit of soldering. If you don't have any experience with that, you should probably take it to a shop.
