What kind of connection does it have? 300 ohm balanced transmission line or 75 ohm coax with F connector?

Hi. It has 300 ohm connection studs but the antenna is supplied with a 75 ohm matching transformer (balun). Therefore, you will just need coax with "F" connectors on each end. I recommend RG6. Hope this helps!

It's 300 ohm on the antenna but comes with a 300 to 75 ohm transformer/balun.

You will set it up with a F connector. Mine came with that kit. Here's the specs...http://www.antennacraft.net/Manuals/HBU_web_manual.pdf

It should be Antenna > 300 to 75 Ohm Balun >short high quality quad shield coax >amplifier > 50 ft coax to basement or wherever >into splitter > splitter to TVs. The amp should be as near the antenna as possible, the splitter should be equadistant from all TVs. You don't want the amp on the far end because you amplify all the noise picked up along the cable run and pipe it to the TVs. You also save money on cable, so you can buy the best cable possible. Make sure the whole system is grounded properly too.

Any standard coax cable should work fine. Don't know if that will affect reception. Probably depends on the total length.

No. The antenna is 300 ohm. When I got it i suspected the plastic thing at the connector was too small to hold the needed balun transformer, so I cut it open and found that the wires are connected directly. Bad juju. I ended up buying a TV 300 to 75 ohm Balun, cutting the lead-in off at the antenna, and crimping on a TV Balun. FM Reception immediately improved with the antenna taped to the window of my apartment. So save some money and get the kind that has the terminals, and buy a Balun to attach to the lead-in. PS, I am an Electronic Engineering Tech, and have the equipment to test such antennas.

It's a piece of wire about 14 inches long connected to a piece of small diameter coax. I suspect loss is more than normal. A quarter wave for those freqs is around 23 inches. Kind of short for that.

If you have a 300 ohm connection, loosen the 2 screws enough so you can fit the "U" shaped terminal between the radio and screws, and then tighten down. If the connection is listed as 75 ohm, you need a transformer to convert from 300 to 75 ohms. Connect the antenna wires ("U" shaped terminals) to the transformer and then tighten down. At this point, push in the jack from the transformer into the back of the radio at the 75 ohm input.

It is standard coax if that will plug into your box....we are using this with two tvs

there is a short micro coax to RF cable adapter that comes with the card.Your normal RF 75 ohm coax that hooks to a TV set tuner will connect to the card via the adapter cable.

I don't know the technical name of it but it's the standard 1/4 inch coax that the cable companies use. I went Big Lots and bought a 25' coax cable and then connected it to my TV. I think it's called RG6 and the female ends with pins are called F- pins.

50 ohms - but if all you have is 75 ohm coax, use it. (swr at 75 ohms is 1:1.5, good enough)

I sent that one back. Don't know the size but it does not have a coax cable input.

The SEK-2500U has a ANT-IN/AIR CABLE connector in the front towards the left end of the box. I believe this is where a normal coaxial cable would be connected. Hope that helps!

Yes, if the screw connectors are labeled something like "300 ohm". If it is labeled "AM", then you need something like this: RCA Matching Transformer to connect to the 75 ohm F connector. These are available here or anywhere that sells electronics. Hope this helps.

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.
