Connecting F-type cable to Mcintosh Tuner

Using the adaptor will work but you will lose 3db of gain. If your station comes in strong enough, no problem. If you notice a problem, get a folded dipole at Radio Shack (6 bucks). It's terminated with small spades that will fit your Mac perfectly. I actually prefer it to my ST-2.

It's a 300 ohm to 75 ohm adapter. Just like a older TV would use. Screws on one end and a female F connector on the other. Link is below.

There is an adapter available. It has a place for two screws and a female F-type you will need a male F to F block. All should be available at radio Shack. You might also look at making an female f type with stranded wire I believe that would yeild better signal transfer.
