RCA to Coax?

Any way to convert signal? My TV only has Coax Video in, Viper II has RCA Video out - so you see my problem.
 
You'll need a RF Modulator. It converts the video level signal to a TV channel (usually 3 or 4). I think Radio Shack still sells them. Figure around $20.00 or so
 
Yes. TV signal is not as clean as the Video signal. But, you might not notice it too much. Just depends on how well you notice it. Some people are real sticklers about the image quality.
 
I was wondering the same thing. I have a Hollywood+ card that I wan to use to output to my TV, but Macrovision won't let it go through my VCR. I can get to RCA (no S-Video or RCA on TV) and now I need to get into my TV via coax. ANy suggestions there?
 
teknoid is correct.

get a RF modulator... if your TV doesn't have any RCA inputs on it you won't notice a quality loss... because that is the quality your used to 🙂
 
The Nintendo cable doesn't work becuase the signal coming from the console is not regular RCA, it's a Nintendo pro-prietary signal. I already tried it.

That wireless job looks swank! 😀
 
Trinitron-

I got the Radio Shack RF Modulator. It works hella good. Doesn't even interfere with cable/VCR input. Image quality is the best I have seen on my TV. You really can't go wrong with this.
$40 for the RF modulator, phone-to-RCA cable, and video cable. I am using a Hollywood+ card for output into the modulator.
