Car stereo question about antenna

[Computersarethebest]

Soo I recently bought a fm antenna for my shed stereo. My shed is 12v so I have a car stereo in there. The antenna I bought is coax out but my stereo accepts a weird looking input. Is there a converter that someone is aware of?

Yeah, radial antenna connectors go back a long time. Amazon carries adapters for these from all kinds of connections, just search "Coax to Car Stereo antenna adapter" and you should come up with more than a few.

Car parts stores used to just stock car antennas, something like this? Might be easier to just go pick up a random car antenna kit and plug it in, rather than adapter something? Just another idea.

as said, the adapters can be found on amazon, but if you want it done today, an autozone/advance auto, or walmart in the stereo sections should have what you need.

I already have an antenna inside the shed and it's not really getting all the station so I bought a really good outdoor one and going to mount it on the same pole as my tv antennA.

I just did a quick search on Amazon and couldn't find anything that would work?

Lol that was quick, I'm having a hard time finding it on the canadian one but I'll look more.

Make sure that pole and your shed are well grounded against lightning strike. If you're looking for stations and they're all in a particular direction I'd suggest making or buying a more directional antenna, you'll get much much better reception and likely even be able to grab digital radio signals.

you "could" splice and solder the 2 set ups. all it is is a 2 wire line.

I can buy it from the US Amazon but I think I'm going to pass, I have rg6 cable and I would probably need another adapter to go from my rg6 cable connection to this connecter.
