How do I connect a regular antenna with a coax connection to a television with A/V inputs only?

I have a television with A/V jacks only. Since I dont have cable, I can't really watch anything. I wanted to know how I could connect a regular antenna with a Coax connection, to the television using some sort of device. Can I use an RF modulator?


If you have a vcr you could use that. Hook the coax from the antenna to the antenna in on the vcr. Use rca cables (red white yellow) from the video out, not the coax out, to the a/v inputs on the back of your tv. If you only have yellow and white on either your vcr or tv then they are mono but that is not a big deal. Just use the right colors on each end and you may end up with an extra cable.

You connect the antenna to the RF input on the TV not the AV inputs.

A RF modulator only works on coax inputs.
