Product Description
From Amazon.ca
RCA's CRF940 is the perfect accessory for managing competing devices on televisions with minimal inputs--not to mention enjoying DVD players or other audio/video components through older, non-"cable ready" television sets. The CRF940 accepts video inputs from four separate source components in three separate formats (one RF and four each composite-video and S-video) and routes their AV signals through its tri-format AV outputs. One of the CRF940's four sets of AV inputs is built into the front panel, facilitating spontaneous hookups of camcorders, VCRs, video game players, or other devices.
This would also be a fine asset for transferring S-VHS video or camcorder content to an older VCR lacking the requisite composite-video (yellow RCA jack) or S-video (black five-pin) inputs. Accompanying sets of stereo analog (left/right) RCA audio inputs handles the source sound.
The unit's gold-plated audio and video connectors ensure maximal conductivity and minimal corrosion so you can set it and forget it--the terminals won't need cleaning for two years. A VCR-like output switch lets you select channel three or four for your TV viewing when using the RF output, and a red front-panel LED indicates power status. A supplied AC/DC adapter plugs into the rear-panel DC input jack.
What's in the Box
Switcher, AC power adapter, and an instruction sheet.

So-So RCA Modulator
Jan 6 2005
By Ryan Vallieu
- Published on Amazon.com
We have had 2 of these items, and both have failed. The first after 9 months, and the store and RCA told us we were out of luck. We then got a second one, since it was the only one we could find at the time locally, and this time it came with it's own external DC Adaptor, whereas the first one was internally converting the 120V AC.
The systems failed in basically the same way, you plug it in and it goes into some kind of power overage shut off. It will work for the nano-second when it is initially plugged in and then shut off.
The 9V, 100mA DC adaptor appears to be functioning properly.
When it works, it does a great job. We tried a similar Radio Shack item and that thing was horrible with all kinds of cross over feed from the other channels.
I just want something that lasts! Guess I will have to get a new TV now or something....

GREAT MODULATOR AND VERSITLE
May 20 2006
By J. Spett
- Published on Amazon.com
I have had this for over modulator for over a year and it works great. no problems. It automatically switches back to the antenna/cable when the power to the selected connected device is turned off. In many ways this makes it hands free so it is easy to just switch from DVD back to antenna or cable. At the same time as I use it to hook devices to an older TV, I use it to hook different audio sources to my stereo system. You can use the different outputs at the same time so I have composite outputs going to my Stereo and RF cable type output to my older TV. So my DVD player now plays audio into my stereo for a more theater like experience. I have had no problems with the device and it has been very reliable and very high quality. The main case is made of metal.

Works great, needs better instructions
July 2 2008
By Robert Grady
- Published on Amazon.com
Initially, I had the same problem described by others of it turning itself off after a second (this is because the antenna function apparently needs no external power, and that is what it defaults to). However, after looking carefully at the pictures and those of a similar Magnavox product, I realized the problem is that the first set of plugs are actually for the output, not video 1. Once I turned around my my cables, it worked fine.
This is a very easy to use device. If only it had better instructions!
