My tv's coax connector broke and we get cable from the wall. What kind of external tuner box would I need to get these channels? Or is there some other solution?
Thanks

If you have cable, contact your cableco.

Could a VCR with an s-video or composite video (yellow jack, RCA connector) work for you?

You might, of course, get the set fixed.

As pointed out, if the set has video inputs, then an old VCR would work as would a cable box. It could be time to upgrade to a DVD recorder or similar device, too.

If the TV does not have video inputs then repair is the primary option.
