Actually, I bought one of the C= original rf modulators from Jameco
for something like $3.95 about 3 mo ago (at least I think it was
Jameco... I'll check)

Also, you can get an rf modulator from Radio Shack built by TI for $4.95.
All you need to do is add the correct din connector (I've done this too).

Both work great.
