You can, but you'll experience some signal loss and it's certainly not able to handle as much power as compared to regular CB cable. If you're running a standard CB radio running at the customary 4 watts, it's usable for what you want to do. I'd be more worried about having less of a load on the CB's final amplifier stage than what a standard CB cable provides, which may lead to overheating of the transmitter final. For a short run, you just may be able to get away with it, but keep an eye on the heat.

Could a BNC Female to F-Type Coax Male Adapter be used to connect a game console to a TV through a coax cable jack?

If you are using the output of an RF modulator (which is not built in to any current gaming console), you can use many different adapters to attach a signal to the coax cable jack. What you cannot do is use a signal that is a RCA composite or component video output from a game console to attach to the coax cable jack. You will need an external RF modulator to generate a signal to appear on channel 3 or 4 of the TV.

How do you hook up a new HD receiver with only one coax input place to an old tv which with old receiver had 2 coaxspots 1 went from tv to incoming dish line then other from tv to back of receiver?

I am assuming you have a new HD duo receiver (222k, 622, 722, 722k) or 612 solo receiver that doesn't have a coax connector for TV 1. You need to do 1 of 2 things to enable you to connect the old TV to your receiver. If your TV has an RCA port (yellow, white, and red cable) on the back, you can use that cable instead of the coax from the TV to the receiver. If your TV doesn't have the RCA ports, you need to get an RF modulator to convert the signal from the receiver from RCA to coax.
