no shop

mate u wouldnt want to take it to a shop u probly get done for this because it is criminal offence using any other typ of recievers from other countrys

[plasterer]

Get one of these from maplins and solder it in
Couple of quid max
Do it right and its as good as new.................Paul

I just used a big fat soldering iron to reconnect the outer part. Then a fine pointed tip to do the internal part.

Take it to any repair shop they'll do it if your worried remove the info from inside k*ys and scce then it's FTA but I've never heard of a repair shop grassing someone up

What a load of bull,if you dont want to have a go at it,just take it to any repair shop most anyway probably up to no good anyway ,they probably would,nt even think that you have to put a male connector onto a cable feed anyhow

if your taking it to a shop you might aswell see if they will fit the proper f type connector or whatever it is to screw in like the proper box as ive got similer probs with a loose connector on the back, it keeps coming out.

I'll have a look at it for you if you like. I live in Scotland's capital and work in electronics so soldering is not a problem.
