What type of antenna is this?

I'll have some pictures tomorrow but the connection is for an FM antenna and it looks a lot light a BNC network connector but different. If I can find a connector that fits on this I can make my own antenna (aka, wire it up to the giant CB antenna on the roof) that gets great reception.

It may be one of these: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/TV_aerial_plug which are common in Europe. Note that a CB antenna is going to be tuned for (SW) 26-29MHz, which is far below FM's 88-108MHz. It'll work, but not optimally.

The video connector in the link above is called a PAL connector - Yamaha, e.g., used them on their consumer tuners world-wide in the 1970s and they're not uncommon in European tuners and receivers. Radio Shack still sells F to PAL and vice versa adaptors (last I knew).

Thanks, it looks the most like that PAL connector. I guess I'll be taking a walk down to radio shack to find one.

Bought my wife a Philips Radio/CD/ipod. It had a pal connecter and I fussed and fumed for a few days. Then I decided to try one of my RF slip-on's that I had on hand. Works perfectly, she is now connected to my big outside antenna.
