OK, so the RCA Jack is actually original and the 300 Ohm Twin-lead wire in the back was added later on in an attempt to make it work with a "modern" 300 ohm twin-lead antenna hook-up if I'm understanding this correctly.

Is there any way to make this 72 ohm RCA antenna setup work with a more modern 75 ohm antenna setup like what is used on a digital converter box or a VCR or a RF Modulator?
