Hey guys,
I have a 37" LCD that I've been attaching my vintage game consoles to, but I hit a snag trying to get my Atari 2600 to connect. This TV doesn't have a coaxial input. The Atari unit only sends signal out on a coax signal to an RF switch which is supposed to plug into a TV's coax jack.
So in short... how would one hook up a coax-output-only device to a TV with no coax input? I guess what I need is the opposite of an RF modulator. I went to Radio shack and they didn't know; went to the local electronics supply store which is the size of Costco and they didn't have any ideas either. I find it baffling that what I'm trying to do seems impossible. Any ideas?
