Mend Starview Main Cable Box

Hiya i have a cable box its a starview not a satellite. Over time the main input connection on the back of the box has completly broken off, Is their any way of salvaging the box? All i can see where the connection used to be to be. I will include links to pictures of what it looks like now and where it was connected to on the inside of the box.

hiya mick thanks for the answer, Hoever my da (who would be used to soldeering) had a look and thinks theres too much damage as the live wire (i presume he means) is too far in or something. The main thing i want to know is it possible to fix by even a tech guy. And would it be an expensive job?

take a look at maplins wib , site for ( F connector chassis socket) order number (Fe98G) it should fit into the hole at the back of the starview, its held in with a lock nut , and the pin comming out if the back of it should reach the live on the starview out put , with the help of a solder iron , its worth a try , have it unpluged when your working on it ,,,,,,,,
