    does anyone know of...

    a cable that would adapt a car antenna to a RCA type plug...

    i installed a FM/TV card and some reason the antenna connection is an RCA type plug...If i can adapt a car plug to RCA im thinking i could use the antenna in the car to pick up stations....

    suggestions?

    "my guess is that it is relatively high because it uses an RCA type jack (maybe 300). The impedance of the car antenna is relatively low, estimate maybe 50 or 75 ohms."


    ...taken fromthis post that discusses that the impedence may be incorrect, you may want to look over this thread to research it a bit
