I have a RCA Proscan TV which has a tuner failure. The Video is good through the RCA composite inputs. I'd like to get a few more miles out of the thing if I could get a reasonably priced external tuner.
I've seen several on TigerDirect and Amazon for about $40+, but they seem to be primarily for use with a computer -- the cable to connect to the TV/Monitor is VGA. Does anyone know of a device that will work for me?
I don't have a VCR that I can use. I was looking for a cheap temporary solution. I'll likely buy a new TV when I can find the best deal for it. Maybe newer VCR's are cheap enough to use tuner only. I'll check prices. But after thinking about it, the cable box from Charter might be my best bet.
The TV has the RF input which isn't working or drops out when the set warms up (likely a cold solder joint in the tuner circuit) and TV1 and TV2 inputs. I have a computer with video capture card connected to TV1 and can record 2 shows at a time on it. But it would be good to be able to use a 3rd input if I wanted.
