>>> I'm new at collecting classics. What is a VIC-20?
The VIC-20 was Commodore's first computer...2K of RAM (I think), did
sounds
and color TV screen stuff.
Sorry to burst your bubble, but the VIC-20 is pretty far down the line
in computers from Commodore it debuted as the last model of the PET/CBM
line came into being, the SuperPET. VIC-20 has 5k of RAM which about
3.5k is available for BASIC programs (the rest is for operating
registers, video memory, etc.)

I am not an expert but there were RF modualtors (the thing you use to
connect a computer to a TV) for the Apple, from my historical research
Apple could not get FCC certification for an RF adapter for the ][s so
they did not sell any but routed customers to their supplier. I think
the product name was SupRMod or SupRMod ][ or something like that... In
general if it has a composite video output, you proabably can find an RF
modualtor for it. :D
