I would check the ground first also.It will most likely work fine if the connections outside are ok.Make sure it doesn't have an outdoor amp that needs a power supply.You would see the wire from the antenna going to a little box then the ant wire coming from it if that was the case.Make sure the ground is there also.Some tuners have a European type of 75 connection.If you get that type,you might need a little push on adapter like shown in the links.I not sure witch one will work best.Links>>>[http://www.radioshack.com/product/index.jsp?productId=2103581]-[http://www.radioshack.com/product/index.jsp?productId=2123184#]
