So I have this antenna on my roof, it was working before, but now it's not working. It looks like the cable got out.
Here's the antenna with the arrow showing where the cable is out:

Can i just get a 100 ft. Coaxial Cable:

and connect it to that end then connect it to the spot in one of these three spots?:

One of these spots is my old coaxial cable and that's broke too.
After I put the new coaxial cable through one of these 3 spots INSIDE (link shown below)

and connect it to my tv where my old coaxial cable is that is broken(shown in the link below):

Will the over the air antenna work as cable tv like before, or antenna.
And, will it work like this or will it be more complex?


Any help is appreciated, thank you.

that depends on whether or not the antenna was set up to be coax to start. otherwise you'd have to put an adapter on it.

If the ground line is disconnected or broken too it also has to be fixed. otherwise you have a lightening rod
