I hope this is the right place to ask, but there is this TV/Radio antennae plug in our Den - Unfortunately it looks like someone cut the line where it comes out of the house near the old TV antennae mast. Any suggestions on fixing/leveraging this for DTV and/or FM antennae for my component stereo setup that I am planning to put back up? The lower plug on that faceplate is so dam weird..
It appears to be ladderline wiring inside - do I reconnect and use for a FM or Ham radio, or do I use it to pull through some COAX & CAT6 to connect the DTV & FM antennae? 🤔
EDIT: I pulled the faceplate and plug off, and it is ladder line inside. The plug is a Wineguard model T32-U which only had the TV/FM connected the lower UHF plug was disconnected - and neither had the ground connected.

#LaptopRepair, #KeyboardReplacement, #DellLatitude7270, #TechRepair, #ComputerRepair

Expectation: buying a replacement keyboard to get rid of broken keys on this #thinkpad laptop
Reality: Replacement keyboard comes with broken keys
*sigh* So it is micro mechanism surgery time to build one working keyboard from two broken ones
Dear #lenovo, this sliding cover mechanism hiding the screws is an absolute pain to work with
Yep, I mentioned a #yubikey being found - in the laptop I picked up was this yubikey in one of the #USB ports
Well, I can always use another one
