I ran into the same problem this Christmas.  We bought a DVD player and a =
home-theater-in- a-box.  Now, how to connect everything to a TV with just =
a coaxial input (cable).  I asked around if there was a box that would =
accept the RCA plugs on one end and a coax on the other.  Was told that =
such an animal didn't exist.  Then, while looking at TVs at an electronics =
store and explaining my dilemma, the salesman told me all I needed was an =
RF converter box.  They were out, but I found one at Radio Shack.  Costs =
about $30.  They were originally designed for people trying to hook up =
their video games to the TV.

I didn't have to spend the bucks for a new TV, but after making the =
decision to buy, it was a bit of a letdown not to go from a 19" to a 27".  =
Maybe next year.
