I have been a collector for years, sadly got rid of my original collection 10yrs ago when I moved to Colorado. Recently rekindled my love for retro boomboxes and started collecting again. I got a Centurion TV7 for a steal and was wondering what I need to pickup signal for the TV on it? I cannot find any info online for this unit. Figured I would join this forum and see what the veterans know. Any help would be appreciated. IMG_2777.jpegIMG_2778.jpegIMG_2779.jpeg

You can get an RF modulator, it will convert the output of your DVD player or game console to a signal that can be accepted by that antenna port on the back of your boombox

I don't think I've seen that style antenna jack before unless it's just a wire with a male fitting. The best way to do it is to get a Blonder Tongue Agile Modulator and broadcast over the air but some of the nicer 80's VHS players also have the ability to broadcast. Here's one of the best threads on the topic, this guy is an animal.

If the boombox is in working condition and the TV is also working, then you can try this method.
This guy also has videos where he has a similar boombox:
