Are there tv signal amplifiers that switch between say 3 inputs to a single cable output to the tv's cable in?

What you need, I think, is an RF Modulator.

But, but, but, it says

Lets you connect your A/V devices
To an older-style television without A/V input jacks.

Input is 3 cable AV and output is coax to TV. If that is not what you want then please explain further.

I am making a prototype HDTV airwave antenna that will actually have two types of antennae mounted on it. I am going to use an amplifier and a combiner, and may add a another combiner to include the cable option. I am experimenting with actually joining the two antennae and also keeping them seperate.

BTW, this antenna will use a cable to hook to the cable connection on the TV. I wonder if an HDMI connection could work?
