They just forgot to specify about VGA monitors that they should be
with TV scans...
2ALL: And for a TV cord, all the cores must be separate

PS. Personally, I _sincerely_ advise everyone to look for TV monitors from

The meaning is when the black color (R, G and B are at 0) the brightness is also at 0 on the monitor
you need to submit BRIGHT' instead of BRIGHT.

It depends on what the tasks are and what tools you have.
You can look for diagrams (for example, ask Conan).

Will do. It would just be a good idea to check the pinouts of the connectors. I remember on mine

There may be confusion with the names:

is a completely different clone, produced by the Dniester plant (Bendery), in
black case, with rubber keyboard. His diagram has not yet been found.
HO! Through the efforts of Vlad Semchenko (aka Spensor), the clone circuit was restored
["http://zx.pk.ru/showpost.php?p=38380&postcount=399"]
(Sevastopol Electromechanical Plant). Judging by the photo of the BYTE board,
it is a simplified version of , without SECAM and HF encoder
modulator. Therefore, the circuit (and most likely the pinout of the connectors, with the exception of
HF) and the connection of Ts are identical.

Andreas, the photo above shows a computer with a regular keyboard. Judging by the description
80xx (and others), its "BYTE" has rubber. Possibly in the picture from German
website third option "BYTE" (or just a homemade machine).
P.S. A photo of "BYTE" (the one from the respected 80xx) would be very useful.

It turned out that BYTE has a regular keyboard made in Moldova, and the one that
with rubber Ts Ukrainian.
Cos> Doesn't look like a home-made one. In the corners of the body, shrinkage is clearly visible in places
Cos> posts for fastening the body halves.
It’s just the case and keyboard that look homemade. Similar constructs (with
poorly stamped) were sold on radio markets. But a photograph was discovered
(poor quality), where such a BYTE is shown complete with typographical
instructions and a factory power supply (the size of a computer). What can you use?
draw a preliminary conclusion that this is the variant of the same name. Shed light on it
the origin could be a photograph of the board.
