Default VHS recorder with "F" input

We are on a the Comcast cable system so if it works as I understand it when
the US goes digital we will still get a analog signal over cable.
I am looking for a VHS recorder with an RF input using the usual F
connector. This will just be used for time shifting.

They have become impossible to find.

I was just at a mass electronics recycling weekend (2200 cars each with
an average of three TVs/monitors/vcrs); most of the material was in
perfect working condition and all of it was unceremoniously scrapped.

If you are anywhere in the U.S. besides the countryside, put an add in
the paper, shop thrift stores, back alleys, dumpsters, etc. and you are
likely to find a pristine VHS VCR with RF input for next to or equal
to nothing.
