    Right Angled RF Cable

    I know we're entering the HD Era, and to even speak of RF cable is seen as heresy (well, an exaggeration - but we all know it's not brilliant...!).

    But, its the only input I have for my current TV, and I'm not changing it anytime soon because I've just spend plenty on this new PC, a new guitar and an Evesham PVR160 (arrived today, I wasin't in - redelivery tomorrow ).

    So I need RF cable to go from the wall to my current freeview box/the PVR160 - but I'm looking for some with right-angled connectors, to save me having to move my drawers so far from the wall as they are justnow, I have to shift them about 2 inches at the moment - it's a bit of a pain, not least because it gives our new cat partial access to live wires.

    Does anyone know where I can get right angled cable, or connectors - I'm back at Uni soon, so it should have any tools required for putting the connectors on I would expect!

    Cheers,
    David

    Maplin might be compete rip off merchants for many items, but when you need an obscure connector, there isn't really anywhere better

    http://rswww.com/ and http://www.cpc.co.uk/ are good too, but then they are mail order only
