I have a TV set that has broken a small hole around where the CATV

What size thread would this be?

This is what I am looking for. I just have to figure out what I have
leftover I can take apart to get one.

Take either a hacksaw with a fine tooth blade or a Dremel tool with a cutoff
wheel and cut a suitable slice off of a cable connector.
