[Coco] [Spam] Re: I have a TV hooked up!

[Simon Jonassen]

I haven't got my tv hooked up.....

Last time i tried the tv it looked like absolute crap.... So i put a couple
of phono jack on the back of the coco instead, hooked up to the audio/video
of the modulator... So now i have a nice stable composite signal for my old
c64 monitor.....

/Simon :-)

Not so. There was some slight artifacting that was even weirder. :-)

Where you'd on NTSC would have solid blue or reddish fields, on a PAL they
would show a pattern of broad alternating vertical bands of pale green and
pale blue. It's hard to describe. I had some pictures on coco3.com of it
once, but these are now gone.
