I have an outside building that I want to put a TV in. There is not a TV outlet there, and I dont want to have to pay for more cable service. Is there any products that you can connect a TV to your existing cable if there is not an outlet where you want to put the TV?

Well, If the distance isn't too far, you might be able to get an RF splitter and run a coax line out to your outside building. I would guess that about 200 ft would be the max without adding an amplifier. This will work if you have analog cable, since you can tune the channels on the outside TV. If it's digital cable, you'd need a second set-top box, since I don't think running S-video or composite video can go very far without terrible degradation..

Of course this all depends on whether it's practical to run cable outside. The aesthetics might be also a problem, depending on how you route the cable.
