TV Tuner

The TV tuner in my 24" died on me, making the entire coax connector useless. I don't feel like repairing an older TV, but I would still like to use it. Fortunately, the TV does have A/V inputs, so I can still use it right now for DVDs/Console gaming.

I would like to buy some sort of tuner that receives a coax signal and outputs to AV so I can still watch television. I don't even need a fully-featured one, as my signal comes from a satellite set-top on channel 3 or 4. So that's what I would like the most, something that could take a channel 3 or 4 signal and output it to AV.

I realize I could do this with a VCR, but I really don't want to have to go out and buy one for this crap. Just something small and simple. The guy at radioshack said I would have to buy a VCR as it's the only thing that was ever made that could do what I wanted. I told him that was BS, since I could build one myself if I had the parts. All you need is housing, connectors/splitters and a variable capacitor...

Thanks.
 
That's kind of off topic, but it's for 64-bit Linux, 32-bit Linux, 64-bit Windows, 32-bit Windows. I plan on replacing the 32-bit ones later(when I can stop using 32-bit apps) with Vista or whatever.

I use KDE for Gentoo (kind of like a stable OS), and I use Arch to try out the latest stuff so I can break it, En17 etc.

Can you think of a better way to do things? I have the harddisk space for them, and the time for upkeep.
