Wow, I didn't know they made any 1040's with an RF-modulator. Anyway,
if you do indeed have an ST with a built in RF-modulator, then you
already have the circuitry for composit built in. One of the pins on
the monitor port is designated as composite video out if you have an
RF mod. If you don't want to deal with making your own cable, etc,
then you can buy something like Practical Soln's Monitor Master. It
has a composite & audio out RCA jacks on it. If you're into playing
with hardware, I'd just open the case & solder in 2 wires to the
aprop. pins on the pc-board.
