I want to hook my flat screen monitor to my cable TV feed. There will be no computer in the system. What do I need to buy to make this work? Can I go to Radio Shack and get a tuner?

   I had considered this but it is like hundred bucks for the adapter bbecause it is also a tuner. You could probably get it at Radio Shack. They will know what you need.
