Cable TV is usually Coax cable, the ends look like round thingies with a pin in the middle, instead of cat9 which looks like a phone cord

Do they have a salvation army down there in College Station? good couches to be had there cheap

Thre is a goodwill right around the corner from me :)

As for the TV - I bought a coaxial cable, but there is no place on the tv to plu one in.... I thik what I actually need s some kind of adapter. I am going to ake a picture of the back of the tv for when I go back over there.

Weird. Are there only RCA inputs? (the yellow/red/white threesomes) I know I use those, but my setup is wall -(coax)-> cable box -(RCA)-> tivo -(RCA)-> TV

But most TVs should have a coax input, unless the TV is REALLY old (they used to market that as "cable ready" TVs, until every tv had it)... or do really new TVs shun coax, too?

it is weird. I don't need a cble box for one, because it is through the complex.

The TV itself (free hand-me-down!) is pretty old, but not so old that it shouldn't hav a coaxial plug, so, I dunno :o

The only tvs I've ever encountered without a coax are either (i) so new all they have are fancy pantsy inputs or (ii) have the coax port busted off.
