New member Username: GbowersPost Number: 1 Registered: Mar-09 | I am hoping someone can help me get this straight. I have a 52" HDTV (projection) that a friend gave me. He said there was some problem with the screen. I can play my Playstation on the TV (though the RCA jacks) and get a great picture. when I try to hook up my dish (coax) I get nothing at all. I have been told that the Coax connection is probably bad. I am trying to find a converter that I can run from the coax to the RCA jacks and see if I can get a picture then. I have been told to use a VCR but I would rather not have the extra equipment just laying around and not being used. Is there a device or cable that will convert coax to RCA, or is there any other option? |
