I know others got this working by building special little circuits to make to work right with the CoCo. I never got mine to work at all. And from everything I’ve heard about other adapters, even if they are fantastic, just wait until you need to play a CoCo 2 game that uses Artifacts, you’ll be out of luck. 

The CoCo RGB2VGA adapter is the best option to date in my opinion since it simulates the Artifact mode. I’ve ben super happy with mine. Super Crisp, stable…works with everything I’ve thrown at it.
