  • Where can I find a Coax-to-RCA wire/device?

    I need a device/wire that can let me do Coax-to-RCA.

    Older Sony Playstation RFU units had video/audio RCAs with a DC out that went to a 75 ohm jack. It was good for hooking LCD TVs to your camcorder if you had no swivelscreen. They don't supply them anymore but you might be able to find them at a Pawnshop, if you're willing to buy a Playstation with it.

    Also, many DVD players use this connection...

      Phire: Do you mean RF signal to a/v signal or a coax cable to an rca cable?

        Well I bought a video transmitter, but unfortunatly it does NOT have a Coax-In. And my cable box uses Coaxial cables. The transmitter uses RCA cables. So I need a wire or some sort of device that will allow me to connect the two devices.

          Phire:

          You need more than a simple connector/adapter if I read you correctly.

          You need an RF converter as well, something that will take composite video and plant that signal on TV Chan 3 or 4.

          Or am I missing something??

          Reading back it looks like you want to go the other way...strip the broadcast carrier and output to composite video. Any VCR will do that.

            Like Bixler said get a cheap vcr. They make devices that do this but they cost more than the $60 of a cheap vcr.

              Not true.

              Radio Shack carries a stand alone RF Unit for around $29.99. It's tiny. Who needs a trashy little vcr taking up space?
