EURO-->US adaptor for tv card

thanks to the wonders of the internet i got a PAL sourced Geforce FX5200 personal cinema OEM card for cheap. But, the description online didn't tell me it was PAL so when i got the card I wondered what that wierd connector was where the CABLE in goes So I need to know if I can get a cable that will adapt the video card to a standard coax cable. It doesn't matter that the card is PAL I already reconfigured it for NTSC through software and i just want to watch some tube.

where it says "connector for Cable TV feed or antenna"

its larger than a standard US cable end, If i knew the type of connector i would just to to radio shack and make one

It kind of resembles an over-sized RCA cable

no offense meant, it wasn't obvious from your first post that you were looking for the TV-IN connector.

I think this is what you need http://www.radioshack.com/product.as...t%5Fid=278-261
