my old portable crt television has this port on the back that looks like a headphone jack, but it's labeled ext ant. Can I connect a rf modulator to that port at all?

Thanks... enter image description here

    Try to focus your potato better and take another picture. take a picture at a slight angle so we can see depth. – K H Sep 09 '18 at 00:42
  • There was a really old atari/nintendo/turbo grafx era modulator/demodulator we had when I was little that had a fork connector for that screw terminal, and probably matches the earphone style connector as well. Alas I can't find one online. You may have to figure out the pinout for that jack and buy a plug to put on another mod/demod. – K H Sep 09 '18 at 00:48
  • Does also say 12V after Ant? – Tony Stewart EE75 Sep 09 '18 at 01:45
  • Isn't "Ant" for "external antenna"? – Maple Sep 10 '18 at 17:27

Typically they are used to extend the internal antenna if reception is bad but it should work.
