set top box or combination satellite receiver rgb

Hello
Would anyone know of a receiver or combination satellite and set top box to view local channels from antenna on side of house that would have rgb output for full 1080i to an older loewe aconda which only can be viewed with rgb input? Receiver would also need oat tuner for 1080i uncompressed signal from antenna. Anyone with knowledge of such a receiver would be appreciated.

Didn't the 'powers that be' mandate NO HD output except thru HDMI? Something to do with copy protection......
By RGB to you mean component? This is NOT rgb but rather more complicated.
My computer? now that's RGB, as is my digital camera.

You can use a HDFury3 to convert HDMI to RGB. This can work with any receiver (direct tv or stand alone ota receiver) that outputs hdmi.
