5.0 out of 5 stars Perfect solution, October 10, 2008

I have a GE TV with a coax input and a Philips DVD player with RCA and S-video outputs, so I needed an RF modulator to make the transition between the two. I purchased a Philips RF Modulator (PH61159) and despite its good reviews, it was a huge disappointment. When the Philips unit switched over to the DVD signal, I got a noisy pattern across the screen (a series of horizontal lines) that moved in varying speeds. If I picked the modulator up off the DVD housing, the noise got worse. Also, the DVD picture was desaturated and fuzzy. My non-technical wife said it looked "drab."

I returned the Philips unit and picked up this GE unit at Home Depot (sorry, Amazon, I couldn't wait) and plugged it in, and it's fantastic. No lines, beautiful colors. I don't anticipate adding additional devices, so this is a perfect solution for me. (By the way, it doesn't have to stand up; you can lay it on its side and/or hide it behind other components to hide the LED status light, which is *always* on.)

This GE RF Modulator works great for my needs, giving a clear picture and sound. I'm using it from a VCR/DVD player to an old TV.

This modulator works great. The picture quality is good. You will get a little "snow" but it is acceptable. I eliminated practically ALL of the "snow simply by using better cables. Great way to get more use out of an old TV with only one cable connection.
