Q: QuestionIn my present antenna, its thin cable behaves like a receptor of interference in spite of the fact that it has an antenna at its end. Will the coax cable also be subject to interference?

Asked 8 months ago by Pituti.

• A:Answer Hi there! Yes, coaxial cables can still be subject to interference, although they are designed to minimize it. Coaxial cables have a single copper conductor inside a braided metal shield, which helps block interference. However, they can still be affected by electromagnetic interference (EMI) from nearby electronic devices, power cables, and other sources. If you have any questions, feel free to ask. |Angelica| Best Buy Essentials Products|

Q: Questionwill it connect to a Bose wave radio 3mm Jack plug

Asked 11 months ago by leoand.

• A:Answer The Best Buy essentials™ AM/FM Amplified Indoor Radio Antenna (Black) is designed to connect to standard AM/FM antenna inputs, which are typically coaxial connectors. The Bose Wave Radio uses a 3.5 mm jack for its FM antenna input, so you would need an adapter to connect this antenna to your Bose Wave Radio. If you have any other questions or need further assistance, feel free to ask! - Mae | BestBuy Essential Support
