Need Video Controller?

I have a 2007 Gulf Stream Class A. The previous owner had a DISH
antenna and controller installed. Consequently, the factory video controller was removed and is no longer in the coach. I have removed all interior satellite components and need to install a video controller which will allow reception from roof top antenna and shore cable. The TV cables are RCA pin type from both the front and the rear TVs. All the controllers I see are coax connectors. What controllers are the RCA pin type connectors. Are there any adapters available which will allow me to hook the pin type connectors to the coax on controller boxes today? What do I do? Anyone know what controller was originally installed in the coach? Is the original controller available anywhere?

    No go. These are simply a repeat of what I have. A RCA pin into one end then the connector is a RCA pin that plugs into a female RCA plug. I am trying to go from a RCA plugs to RF connectors not RCA to RCA.

    Direct? There is nothing to connect to! That is the problem.
