[QUOTE="Crisbe, post: 635990, member: 327196"] I am not sure if it is, but looking at the first picture it looks like you have an F connector fitted on the end of the coax cable and that is screwed on to an adapter which is converting it to a push on connector. Unscrew the cable connector from the adapter and you should be left with an F connector. As you say you are a newbie, just to explain: An F connector is a screw on connector. It does not have a central pin as such, it uses the solid centre core of the coax as the pin. So if you unscrew the end connector, off the adapter, you should find that it will give you a screw thread fitting with a short piece of the solid centre core sticking just out past the end of the thread, which should fit straight on to the connection marked LNB in.
