Well, actuabble you can.  If you have most of the original equipment, it 
should have come with a 2 part RF-Modulator.  One part clips onto the 19 pin 
color video connector on the back of the 2c, and then the signal goes along 
one RCA cable to eaither the 2nd part of the modulator,  which converts the 
RCA to 2-terminal spade connectors, like old style antenas use.
