The Sony and Canon Hi-8 camcorders I bought in past years, came
with a little A/V to RF (coax) adaptor, that plugged directy into the
outputs and also into a powerjack to give it 5 volts DC. My GV-D200, a
mini-Digital8 VCR, has A/V and DC power outputs that take one of these
adaptors, but those of my newer DV mini VCR aren't positioned right for
them. The simplest A/V to RF adaptor is to just run the output into any
analog VCR and take the RF output from it, which will convert it to go
over a coax cable. There are probably other small, external adaptors
that connect with cords to do this, but you might have to hunt around at
electronics stores to find one.
