Ikegami 9 inch color CRT production monitor, no picture

An RF to SDI converter would be a tuner. And yes, you'll need one if you're trying to view broadcast television.
If it's this one, https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/produ...ield_Rack.html
it's a standard def monitor with selectable aspect ratios. SDI is SD only. Don't know if they made other input modules for it.
If you look up the full model number (from the back perhaps) you can determine the real specs, and feed it with the proper input signal to see if it works.

They say it accepts composite video which is what the VCR outputs as via the RF lead. I'm trying to find a RF to SDI digital convertor. I'll probably need a RF modulator first to convert the RF to RCA composite(yellow red and white) then convert that to HDMI then convert that to SDI. That should give it the digital signal it wants. I'm no trying to watch over the air TV but rather use it to test old VCRS or CED players.
