I know this is a little OT, however I am wanting to find someone with a little experience with this to help me out. I have a Denon DVD player which I want to connect to an older TV. It is old enough that it does not have RGB, component video or s-video. However, I am looking to connect my DVD player which has all of these but it does not have the UHF antennae connector that the TV has. I am wondering where to get such a connector and if you could point me to a web site so that I know what I am looking at. Thanks in advance.

I wish I had known what to ask for when I was buying a stand-alone DVD player. I ended up getting what is called a "video stabilizer" over the internet and running it through my VCR. This device removes the macrovision copy protection that is inherent in most DVD players and allows me to watch DVDs through my VCR. I think it only cost me $20 shipped I think and it looks like most of the good RF modulators cost around $30 unless you get one that is designed for game systems. The added bonus with the "video stabilizer" is that you can "back-up" your DVDs on to VHS tapes for protection.
