WTB: RCA to COAX adapter in Toronto

[goldenegg]

I just got a 2600 I bought off a member here. I completely forgot the video cable was built in to the unit and need a RCA to COAX adapter.

 

Anyone know where I could pick up one of these in Toronto? Home Depot, Future Shop and Best Buy were all bust. It's looking like I might have to order one online, but I was hoping to find one this weekend, so I could play the console during the long weekend.

 

The Source is the only other store I can think of to check out tomorrow. Any other suggestions are greatly appreciated!

I don't know if you have Radio Shack, but that's where I got them from.

All our Radio Shacks turned into The Source a number of years ago, and I suggest that this is the most likely place to find what you're looking for. (And they will charge you too much.)

I think I found it on The Source's website, although the description's wrong.

Given the one review posted, where someone says they used it with their 7800, seems like this is the right one. The description makes it sound like the RCA side is male, which isn't true.

Maybe it's transgendered.

That's the one.

If you can't get it locally, you can order one from the AtariAge store. Store > Atari 2600 > hardware. It's $3.00 and you support AA!

There are a number of hole in the wall stores in Toronto that tend to have loose electronic bits kicking around. There's the Factory Direct shop in the plaza at Dufferin and Orfus (just south of Yorkdale, west side), or TexTor on Bathurst just above Lawrence (phone 647-799-0909), and another in a plaza on Sheppard between the Allen and Keele, beside the Service Ontario licence shop - don't have the name or number. But one may help.
