The standard TV aerial plug/socket is rather quaintly called the Belling-Lee, after the British company that invented them.

I'm sure this was on your patriotism test.

But F connectors (usually used for satellite feeds) perform better (lower loss) and are smaller diameter so better if you don't actually need to connect to a TV UHF socket. Might confuse someone in years to come when they try and connect a satellite receiver though.

F connectors

Is what I've actually used to join two lengths of TV aerial downlead together. They are, as you say, much nicer than the Belling-Lee type
