Default Video camera to portable TV

Hello,

Again, thank you for replying.

Unfortunately I do not have a make and model number yet, because I
thought I'd wait on buying a specific unit, until after I'd heard from
all of you.

In any case, I'll really consider your idea of just using an RF
modulator.

Thank you for your help,
Paul


Paul....
Yes.... you are "way off base" (your words).... you really need to post the
MAKE and MODEL NUMBER so anyone trying to give you suggestions knows what
kind of television you are wanting to modify.
Furthermore, your pocket LCD television is probablyl not a "normal" in home
television with easy to access circuitry and common discrete components....
more than likely (again, depending on the MAKE and MODEL NUMBER) the unit
will not be easily disassembled, with a circuit board that is very small and
cramped with a lot of subminiature surface mount components and a lot of LSI
and other propriatary chips. There is no standard way of building
television sets .... each manufacture does it their own way and even the
various models from the same manufacturer can be significantly differerent
from each other.
My best suggestion (again) is to go with the RF Modulator route.... or
maybe look into low cost monitors built for the purpose you are
describing..... 12 volt operation..... video inputs only (no television
tuner)...... rear of vehicle monitoring...... check with truck and RV parts
suppliers locally and on the internet..
