dongle connecter lead

[paulears]

Stan - If you don't have a shed full of old cables, leads and connectors, the postage and new connectors is just how it is - they're never wasted! I've just done exactly the same thing, and didn't realise it had that kind of connector. I needed an N socket - so an old video flylead from the shed, chopped the end off and soldered it to an old N type chassis socket. Cost zero. However, until I found the bits, I was looking on ebay - every kind of adaptor is available and many are free postage - but a 3 week wait for the slow boat (plane) from China.

The annoying thing is that when looking for the bits, I found the damn SDR dongle with the right socket that made me buy the new one!

I'm off work on Wednesday so i'll get one built for you pal.
All you'll need to get is the female to female coupler which will set you back a couple of quid

http://cpc.farnell.com/pro-signal/rw3-0 ... dp/CN16063this one gives you an N type outlet
CPC have lots of interesting adaptors - there is a minimum order value to get free postage but they do every kind of lead and cable you can think of - pretty cheap too!

PS CPC know people have no idea a TV aerial connector is a Belling Lee - so they call them ............. TV Coax connector!
