Can I use as rg6/quad coaxial audio cable?

This can be a bit silly but I have seen coaxial cable connections made av RG6 with RCA compression fittings used for RGB / component and digital home theater subwoofer. My question is: Can you make your own audio interconnect cables rg6/quad using shield and RCA ends? Unwieldy to be difficult to manage?

The problem with heavy stiff wire is that sometimes the RCA connectors stay well, and the rigid cable connector can damage the piece of equipment or simply be dropped. A lighter, flexible cable that works best for the RCA cables. A heavy stiff wire is harder to bend over and sticks behind his rack of equipment.

Internet Connection Help?

Ok. So for the past few months, I’ve been bringing our cable modem (I have cable internet) from our room where the computer is, to m room where my Xbox 360 is. Then I’ve been hooking it up and playing online games with no trouble. Just lately, the cable modem won’t pick up internet in my room. It’s a Motorola Surfboad modem. When I hook it up with the cable near my computer, it works perfectly but when I bring it all back to my room, it just stays blinking on the receive button. I’m starting to think that maybe its the cable because the one in my room is a standard white coaxial cable. But the one near my computer was installed there by the cable company and is one of those black coaxial cables that some special thing at the end (I think its called a quad shield or something). Anyway, if anyone can tell me anything that doesn’t require getting anything wireless, please do so. Thanks

make sure and check your ethernet cables, which are:- Crossover and straight through.

Crossover cable can be sometimes causing the lagging problems between the devices. You better off with straight through ethernet cable which are the best for the consoles, preferably CAT5.

I have a dual 7” tft lcd touch screen xdvd8181 need help bypassing the parking brake feature?

I heard that if you hook up the yellow parking brake wire to the ground off of the head unit you can watch movies while the car in in motion for my passengers to watch. I tried it and it does not work. need help maybe i did something wrong thanks….

Took a look at the manual on Crutchfield…if you closely to the diagram your safety wire requires 12v and not a ground. Hook this wire to the Blue/white wire that is used for turning on your amps. That will supply 12V when you power up and your screen should work whenever your system is on….FYI…illegal as all hell if you can see it too so be careful around the fuzz!!!

What is a good online course helicopter ground school?

I have finally begun helicopter pilot lessons and my instructor told me you have to be 50% of the way through ground school before going to double-cross our country. What is a good online course for this? Thank you very much!

I do not think there are courses on-line. You need to complete ground school with your instructor or complete a book written examination testing (or CD) You can go many places online to find these things, but there is no on-line course I know. You must complete the ground school training with his flight makes the flight much clearer.

RG6 Coaxial cable compression Q?

I have a lot of compression connectors (type F), compression tool cutting and redo all my house. I just bought some RG6 cables in bulk on eBay, but I was nervous and tried a tester in a chain that had at home. It did not work, but it was RG6 cable. It RG59. Im wondering if this is normal, or am I doing something wrong, I followed all the instructions I saw online and in the packages they purchased. Im pretty sure the problem is the coaxial cable size I have. Can someone just reaffirmed this with me. Please and thank you.

You are correct, RG59 is slightly lower compared with RG6 cable diameter. This really does not affect hex crimps, crimp as you just tighten them. When it comes to settings of compression, the diameter of the cable is very import. I am willing to be this is the problem. Below is great place for some compression connectors for RG59.
