Our camper did not come with a TV, but I found a great deal on one today. Only problem is that the new TV does not have a coax cable input. It has about every other possible input, including DVI, and component inputs, but no coax input.

Is there a simple inexpensive adapter that will allow me to convert the coax connection to something I can use? If not, I'll have to pass on this deal...

In case anyone needs to know, it's this tv

The link you provided shows a clear picture of all available inputs and outputs with the coax input at the top. Enjoy your new LCD.

I saw that, but even the manufacturer's web site makes no mention of it, and I don't want to take the chance if I don't know for sure that it's there (I'd honestly be surprised if it wasn't but I have no way of knowing until it hits my doorstep). It wouldn't be the first time in the history of internet stores that they made an error and the photo didn't reflect the actual unit...

I just need to make sure i have a back-up plan in case it doesn't have what I think it has...

No doubt that internet retailers make mistakes, but I believe that a coax input is pretty standard on most sets. Call manufacturer or web retailer and they might be able to give you a precise answer.

According to the manufacturers website, it has one coaxial input.

I see a coaxial OUTput, but not an input... What did I miss?

Unlike most internet retailers, Newegg takes pictures of their actual products. You can trust that website. Also, it's not a coax output. Ignore the IT person behind the curtain.

Woops. Read it too fast. My bad. Never heard of a coax out on a TV though ....
