I have an older TV that I like. To hook up a DVD player, I got an RF modulator and hooked up the connections per instructions today. The picture from any played DVD shows mostly black/white with bands of overlaying purple and green. Any suggestions? Thanks a lot, Sunny |

I had the same problem and solved it (?) by using a different modulator. radio shack didn't work, philips worked ok. walmart has philips. good luck. |

Thanks for this insight, Zipi. That possibility had not occurred to me. The one I have hooked up is indeed a Radio Shack model. Thanks, Sunny |

philips make more than one model. the one I use is the same general shape as the radio shack, but they also have a fancier model. the results are not always perfect, but watchable. I'll be the last guy to buy a new crt tv. lol looking at a 26" widescreen toshiba crt. |
