Those little RF boxes don't really convert from
composite to RF, they
just provide a switch and a connection to a TV antenna input.
Communication error!
While you where refering to the common (video game) switch boxes,
John did mention modulators! they are usualy the same size (ok,
the TI one is a true brick), but do what they are named, modulate
the composite signal onto a TV carrier.
The one I like most is the Amiga 520 (?).
