fdurso224 #1 Posted September 18, 2007 Hi Guys: I'm trying to go to Radio Shack today or tomorrow maybe in which I need to buy a part for my Colecovision System. Does anybody know the Part Name/Number for the Cable line in which you hook-up on your TV/GAME SWITCH box to your Colecovision system? Thanks Anthony....

ApolloBoy #2 Posted September 19, 2007 Why bother with a switchbox? Get one of these or even better, you can have your CV modded for composite or S-video. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hi: That's nice, but I just need the name of that long wire that connects to the Colecovision, to the Switchbox. Would you guys be able to tell me the name? Anthony...

+FujiSkunk #4 Posted September 19, 2007 It's a standard RCA patch cord. You probably have several already. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I went to Radio Shack.com and they have several versions of them, and they look expensive. Does anybody know the part number for this Standard RCA Patch Cord? Anthony...

Well, if you insist on shopping at Radio Shack, this one is as good as any. You could also try Wal-Mart or Best Buy or any place else that sells these cables. They go by a variety of different names, but RCA is usually in the name somewhere, and there is little chance you'll buy the wrong cable. $4 is probably about as cheap as you can find something new, though, regardless of where you go. If you're adventurous, you can also sniff around the thrift stores for used cables, which they'll sell you dirt cheap. Or shoot, give me your address and a couple of PayPal bucks and I'll even mail you one. Edited September 19, 2007 by skunkworx Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Thanks for the time and help.. Anthony.... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Artlover #9 Posted September 19, 2007 (edited) Well, if you insist on shopping at Radio Shack, this one is as good as any. Unfortunatly, that's a common speaker cable, which is a just a pair of unshielded wires. It would pick up a lot of RF. This one would be better, as it's a typical shielded coax like design.
