BNC vs. F connectors

Hi. Just ordered the FM100B to broadcast music across my house (). While I'm likely to just use the built-in antenna for now, I may eventually add a TM100, etc.

Question: the kit uses a BNC connector for the external antenna, yet most (all?) of the "compatible" components (TM100, FMBA1C, etc.) use F connectors. When building the kit, would it make sense to replace the BNC connector with an F connector, or should I just fab/buy a BNC to F cable?

Thanks...

-- Bill

Buy a BNC to F adaptor, BNC or 259PL is normally what a desent antenna comes with, Ramsey uses the F connector because its cheap easy to find. Ramsey has to think of the average user, not just the pros.
