“is there a certain type of coax cable that needs to b used with this antenna?”

1-10 of 10 Answers

• I would definitely use the screw on type RG6 coax cables for better signal strength, especially if you need to use DTV converter boxes on your TV sets or you need a longer cable length to your TV. Use a booted outdoor rated cable if you are installing it outdoors. The push on cables you get with some equipment are not good unless you are close to the transmission towers and the antenna is right next to the TV. The older RG 59U coax cable has more signal loss per ft and probably will not give as good results as the RG6 for HDTV 1080p use.

• Regular coaxial cable worked for me just make sure you get the correct ends for your needs (male or female ends).
