"cheap" coax to hdmi converter? (self.amiga)

I have an Amiga 600 that i never use. Its in the original packaging, even with the original silicone humid pack😅 anyway, its taking up space and i want to sell it.

I understand that the 600 might have some capacitor problems and these might need change.

And if it needs that, then that's a problem for future me... Right now I would like to know if it works, and I don't have any TV work coax input...

So I really need a cheap device that I might use a few times just to know if if works before and after any repairs.

What du you guys use?.

I know. So I'm looking ing for a cheap option.

I tried selling to a collector, but he didn't want to touch the 600 as they apparently have a common capacitor fault.

I can boot it up, but all I would be getting is lights and some form of disk load noise/event.

I want visuals!!😅 Cheaply!!😇😄

Buy a USB tv tuner for your pc

can you find or borrow a tv with RGB input or composite? you could use pins from the video connector.
or maybe try posting it for sale in a forum like https://www.reddit.com/r/amiga/
