The TI came with an RF modulator, rather like the ones that came with the Nintendo Entertainment system but much bigger and bulkier. Apparently that had a dispute with the FCC over RF signals and in order to ship their product they had to supply one.
I thought the story was was that in order to get around the RF issues with the original TI-99/4, it was only solid with the matching monitor. The TI-99/4a was the one that was sold with a standard RF switch.
