Video Distribution using RF Modulators?

I have built an "all house" video distribution system. All five bedrooms, Living room and shop have 2 RG6 coax runs to a backboard in the shop (properly amplified). Currently, I'm using a switch box at each wall mounted TV/VCR to select basic cable or living room switchbox. The living room switchbox enables switching of pay TV channels, sat and DVD to remote TVs. This works great, but all remote TVs must watch the same device at one time. I've learned that I could use an RF modulator for each device and transmit it on a different unused channel, eliminating the switchboxes. I've only found 2 manufacturers, Channel Plus and Channel Vision. They both cost about $100.00 per channel and seem to be comparable (I'd like to save some money).
Does anyone know of other manufacturers?
Does anyone have a schematic to build one?
Any other suggestions?
