There is a way to use a composite video monitor BUT it requires tinkering
with the electronics inside the CoCo by adding an appropriate board with
the needed electronics.

To use the CoCo with 'modern' day TVs you will have to get a small adapter
to use the regular audio RCA to RCA cable the CoCo came equipped with. If
you have a local Radio Shack store (or Best Buy) search for something like
this:

It will allow you to connect the CoCo RCA ended cable to the F receptacle
on the TV.
