The cheaper antenna, the one with "F-cable" in its name, is actually an SMA connector. The second antenna looks like a MMCX connector. Neither of them are F connectors.

Just look at the antenna input on your TV. An F connector is the threaded connector used in cable TV systems. Just look at the antenna input on your TV.
