I have an Advent TV that has the RF input connector broken off. I removed

The RF connector is an integral part some "module" that is soldered to a PC
board.

Anyone have any ideas on where to find board level components so I can make
the repair myself. I'm just not willing to put out 100 bux for the whole
circuit board.


I think you would get a better response in a group like
sci.electronics.repair

Hi,
If I were you. I'd solder a piece of coax onto the board, epoxy the
joints, then sedure the coax with tie clamp, then attach a female coax
connector on to it. It's common problem, PCB mounted coax connector
breaking off. You may need to repair the dmamaged circuit trace on the
board first.
Good luck,
