N64 block thingy

I seem to have lost the block thing that goes into the back of the N64 to accept an aerial lead from your TV does anyone know what this item is called and whether I can get it from somewhere.

Thanks for your help.

Its just called the N64 aerial adaptor as far as I know, and a quick Google showed up nothing except the bay. Sorry

RF module. The Gamecube accessories fit the N64 slot so get a GC Scart cable and you're sorted.

Ya know I thought that too but every type of cable ive put in my 64 hasnt worked from the cube. Ive used both composite and rgb, both official versions, plus ive used it on two tv's one an old crt and another a new lcd.

Im sure it does work just doesnt seem to for me.

i got one of these madcatz cables and it claims to do the PS2, xbox, cube and N64, so that should do the trick.

Try a third party Game Cube cable. For some reason the official ones do not work on the N64.

O right ok, I would have thought it would have been the other way around. Thanks for the info.

Same, except my N64 is a launch version.

My N64 isn't, and my official GC cable works in that.

what cable, the composite one ? are you using the scart converter ?

edit: mystery solved it was actually a dud cart making it look like there was just black ont he screen. A few blows and re inserts and now the original composite lead does work.
