Why not feed your signal into an MATV (Master Antenna TV) amplifier and
route coaxes to the rooms where you want to hook up a TV? You wouldn't
need 100 mW to do that....of course, you would have to run coax
throughout the building and in old construction, it could be a pain...

2.4 GHz is the problem.

That frequency is too congested at this location.

I need to move the signal OUT of the 2.4 GHz band.

http://www.jameco.com/ sells video transmitters for 2.4 GHz. If you
have composite video available, it would be easier and legal to go this
route.

I don't think I'll find such a critter very easily, (if at all) so I

like some suggestions as to how I might find resources to build one. (Of

Anyone have any suggestions as to where to start? (Besides Google...

try the RF 2360 from RF microdevices.
it looks scary but with a little bit of patience you can hand make a
small PCB for it. except for thr input and the output oins, all others
are grounded. if you make you PCB out of a 31mils thick board, all you
have to do is scribble a pair of 50 mils wide line and a few
noncritical pads to anchor the power decoupling componnets. it's
specifically designed for CATV use, good from 5 to 1500 MHz.
