Help us out!
Where can you buy or get a color modulator for speck, and one that works in
the pal system.
I heard there are some in St. Petersburg, so this is how you can order it or something?

PS. Don't let a man die!!!

People still watch black and white TV, but they haven't even heard of computers -
and they haven't given up. :)

But in general there were a bunch of schemes - as I understand it, none of them really work. I tried to collect one of these myself. So maybe you won’t find it.:(

See you.

Why not connect directly? Otherwise it will turn out that 64x24 text will not be able to be read...

I don’t know where I can get it ready-made, but there is a circuit in Radioamator 1/96.


All the best.

Yes, in St. Petersburg on the SS'000 we connected a proprietary (I don’t remember whose exactly,
like Scorpov’s) modulator to the projector, so everything was OK!

If I try to connect directly, I would hate to have my hands torn off>8)))
And it is not necessary to read 64-character text, the main thing is that the graphics
look good.

This black box is called “Nice”, they used to be on sale in the crowd every 20 meters
(including Zonov’s) and now they are probably on sale, I haven’t been there for a long time.


With best wishes, Vladimir.

GK> looked good.

For $10-15 you can probably buy an EGA monitor and convert it for spec.
The picture quality (for spec) is excellent. A high-quality color modulator for
PAL will cost about the same. And the TV probably also understands NTSC
.
I don’t know what about the frame rate of 50Hz for NTSC, but the quality of the color
picture
is better there compared to PAL.

I don’t know what was on the CC. And I saw Scorpov's - MASTDAY! And besides, he
was like SECAM.
