I know this may sound bizarre but a customer of mine who bought 2 seperate theater systems for his house also on the day of install wanted to add a DVD player to his kids play room. The tv is an old emerson version which only has an RF coax in. Already in place is a dish network satellite box cabled into a vcr and to the tv all with coax. Is there a modulator that also has maybe more then one set of composite inputs for different sources or maybe a built in switcher onboard. I really hate to tell this guy he just needs a newer tv because i feel thats like a salesmans approach to solving a problem. thanks un advance for your time

How about the "ultimate modulator", a VCR/DVD combo player. The RF output plays both drives' signals.

You could possibly run the DVD player into the VCR video input jacks?

It's a Terk.

Please let us know if it works.
