Hi
I've made a couple of these from cable, both starting from
RCA on both ends and BNC on both ends. Get the connector
you need from RS or other supply and make the cable. It
only takes a few minutes and doesn't require special
skills, other than using a soldering iron.
One can get adapters as well. Allied has a part #202-0835
that is RCA jack to BNC plug. They're only $2.63 but
I think they have a minimum purchase. ( BOMAR part# R0843 )

My unit has a BNC type connector (think
that's what it's called) on it. Mos=
t
composite monitors take RCA cables. Should I be able to find the right cabl=
Well, most decent composite monitors have BNC inputs, but anyway. Most
of the cheaper composite monitors have RCA phono sockets
e
off-the-shelf?
It's a standard cable in the UK, it was often used to link a BBC micro
(which also has a BNC socket for the composite output) to a cheap
monitor. I bought one from Maplin a couple of weeks back.
No idea if you can get them in the States. I think Maplin will ship
worldwide, but their postage charges are not that low.
