VCR as a VHF TV Transmitter

The problem with that is that to transmit legally, you can't
transmit anything entertaining. You can't legally use a DVD
or repeat OTA, and even making actual shows yourself
is a bit iffy. Of course you could make travelogues of your
vacation with callins using ham radio, etc., and that would be 100% legal.
And at the full legal power you'd go a long way.

What are the cable channel numbers in the 432 MHz band? 69?

But for around the house on an antenna (and at full power out
a good fraction of a mile, quite illegal) you won't beat the Blonder-Tongue BAVM, which are always available on Ebay for under $40, if you
just wait for the channel you want. I have a Ch. 6 and a Ch. 10.
They are wired to all my old TVs but the leakage inside the TVs
is so bad that I can pick them up anywhere in the house
and a bit outside on my Watchman. At full power the leakage
gives excellent pictures on the Watchman. With the power way
down pictures are excellent on the wired TVs.
