Do you have something against inline F-type female sockets?
Or do you already have a big bag of males?

Good point! I think I was just picturing the bag of plugs I had, and I'm not sure I even knew you could get inline females. Perhaps that's what I'll use as then it'll effectively just be the one connection.


I seem to be struggling to find them - do you have a link Martin?


Where is Maplin when you need them! RS or Rapid should have them but
minimum order charges apply so no use unless you need a bunch of stuff.

No! That is Belling lee style coax female!

For joining two F cmale connectors together you need one of
these:

Note that is a pack of 10 but is considerably cheaper than a
pack of two from Wickes (same owner!)

If you just need one, you might do better at a diy shop or, if
you bump into a VM or satellite instal crew, you might get one
for nothing!
