Internal coax is RG6 75 ohm impedance. Strictly speaking, the engineer was right. The cable he knows that works is his responsibility to install; he must do it. It might well be the same as yours BTW but he doesn't know this.

If your own cable isn't RG6 then you'd need to go to Maplins (or similar) and get them to make on up for you. The crucial thing (as you may know) is that the ends are properly fitted with no opportnity for RF ingress.
