It's been too long since I last saw one of those, but I think there was a
way to tune the RF output to channel 3 or 4 (or maybe a wider choice),
possibly thru a hole in the cabinet with one of those plastic hex drivers.

That unit might've actually been a Heathkit, or I'm confusing the colored
clips with a different model than you have.

I vaguely remember fixing one of those to use it, and the ICs might've been
DTL. I don't really know how you'd go about checking that the output signals
actually work.

It wouldn't completely surprise me if someone else is still using one of
those Conar units, hopefully someone can be more help.

Good Luck
Cheers
