Co-Axial gadget?

Co-Axial gadget?

Postby Sparkle » Tue Dec 23, 2008 10:20 am

I think that's how you spell it? It really annoys me screwing that stupid cable in, to the point I feel like buying a seperate TV for the bedroom! But it would be a lot cheaper if there was a gadget that made it easier. It runs in my mind that I had heard of one. What's it called and where can I get one?

Thank you Ava, just the info I needed. The company lists a package of two for 4.99, and probably plus shipping. I'm going to check out Radio Shack now I know such a thing exists and see if I can get them without having to get them mailed to me. Failing that I'll know where to go. Whole lot cheaper than buying another TV. I have to lie face down on my bed and struggle to reach the cable connection in a corner behind a storage unit I put in. Hate it!

Beware tho, if you have trouble with your signal, try taking the quick connect off. When I had my new Dish installed the first thing the installer did was remove all my quick connects. Boo hoo. He said they often decrease the signal.
