TV aerial plug[edit]

Original - An IEC 169-2 connector. Also known as a Belling–Lee connector or TV aerial plug.

I borrowed a friend's macro lens and had a go at image stacking with CombineZP. I removed a slight halo with GIMP. The connector is made of soft aluminium and is assembled by hand onto the end of a cable cut to length.

  • Would it be possible to get a picture of one in better shape? This plug seems fairly beat up. Makeemlighter (talk) 23:28, 14 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]
    • I'm afraid I have given the lens back and so can't take any more pictures. All I can do is adjustments to the set of pictures I took. The marks and scratches are a feature of its soft aluminium rather than having had a particularly hard life. I guess a stainless-stell one would look smarter, but less interesting?.

    • BTW, there's another pic I took at File:F Connector Side.jpg. I didn't post both here as I thought the comments would be similar. It is a different kind of connector but still a stacked macro shot. Colin°Talk 11:32, 15 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]
      • The photos are well done, but I'd expect some impedance (heh) due to the less than virgin nature of the connectors. JJ Harrison (talk) 23:05, 2 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]
        • Thanks for the comment. I guess I need to take pictures of brand new stuff. Colin°Talk 10:41, 8 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]
