I need some technical help with my SDTV.

Ok, so I haven't gotten around to buying an HDTV and the current set up I have is pretty last decade.

I have a phillips magnavox 26" tv with no AV jacks to hook up my XBOX. Only thing it has is the Antenna coaxial out. The kind you screw in the cable, remember those? Yeah. Anyway. I have that to an old VCR and have the XBOX connected to that. Go to channel 2 turn VCR on and bam I play online.

Well my vcr just broke...I'm looking around for some type of adapter that will let me plug the XBOX A/V cables to the TV without the TV itself having any other connection other than the Antenna.

Is this possible? Is there some type of adapter that will let me use this?

Unfortunately I won't be able to get a TV this season, it's either that or getting my car fixed...

I'd hit Craigslsit, free section. People blow out CRT TVs all the time for free. Probably find a bigger, better TV with more inputs no problem.

Search the entire For Sale section for "Curb Alerts" also.

You're probably going to need something like this. It's called an RF Modulator, just google it. You can get them at WalMart, Radio Shack or any similar store. They're pretty cheap.

Thank you gents, much obliged!

Here's a simple explanation.

Those RF modulators are still available?

But, seriously, nut up and buy a decent set.... especially if you're gaming. (coming from someone who's never played a video game in his life).

My in-laws still have one of those 80 pound tube sets... and their kids- my wife and brother in law- are buying them an HDTV for Christmas. I asked them why since the parents are so cheap they won't pay the additional $5/month for the HD box....
