Is there a RF PAL BG, DK etc. to RF NTSC-M converter?

Is there some one? Amazon, Aliexpress (scam express) maye?

A combined RF PAL-land <--> RF NTSC-land is kind of silly, as not only do the RF frequencies & bandwidths need to change, but the underlying baseband YUV needs to be converted as well.

Much easier to just:
DECODE System A to baseband
Convert System A to System B
ENCODE System B to RF

Pros would never be looking for an all-in-one, as not only do they likely already have those component elements, but they have the resources (legally & financially) to get the originals (baseband) straight from another source.
Consumers' only non-niche use would be for decoding and converting into a multi-systems-capable VCR/DVR or TV, both of which would be high-end. And that wouldn't include the final RF encode.

Am pretty sure that this kind of composite device would be a red flag to national/regional regulators who worry about piracy & rebroadcasting issues.
