There are RF adapters that'll convert a RF signal sent out by any
device (//c, game console, VCR, etc) into a signal on channel 3 or 4
for TVs. You may be able to find one, however if you've already got a
VCR, most of them have a 'video in' connection, which is a RCA phono
jack. Connecting to that is probably the easiest.
With one cable from the //c's video out thru a vcr or a
converter/adapter does have this problem: video only, no sound. If the
//c has a headphone jack, you can probably connect a mono Y cable to
the VCR's audio R/L in.
