I want to connect an indoor aerial to my TV. Sounds simple.
However, the plug on the back of the TV is so flush to the back of the TV case that there is no space to plug in the connector that came with the indoor aerial. I need a short male/female extension, ether flexible or with a right angle.
I don't know what it would be called, to search for one, assuming there is such a thing.
Could somebody please point me in the right direction? Thanks.
