I had to hook one of these up to a Tandy 1000HX a while back for a friend.
The thing was a fairly nice unit from Aztec (seems to make most of the
world's modulators and cheap switching power supplies); I got their number
from 1-800-555-1212 at the time. Of course, I have since lost the data sheet.
The unit took low-level audio, composite (RS-170) video, and 9V. It ran very
well off of a 9V alk. battery. Hope this helps...
