WMC connection question

Hope I am making this clear.

First, WMC works fine. No issues.

Here's what I notice.

I had to disconnect everything since I had to haul the PC into the Purgatory That Is Best Buy. (Had an extended warranty. No more after this.)

If I look at the back of the PC, I see this:

DTV TV CABLE
ANT ANT
* *

The *'s being where the coax goes in. So, I have it plugged into TV CABLE ANT, and the picture is fine.

Here's where I have my query.

I have another coax left. (I have two lines near my desk, and one goes into the PC, and the other goes into the PC.)

IS the other line supposed to go into DTV ANT?

And I also seem to notice very faint RF roll on my monitor.

Hey!
I would just try the Antenna connections in each, and see what works best.
I have a TV card that has only one antenna connection.
Maybe there is two connections for two aerials? Where I live there are two TV towers in different directions, so maybe if you had two aerials you could point them at the two towers to get both the broadcasts.

I don't know, just what I'm thinking.
Hope I've helped lol.
