When I connect my C64 to a TV set via the TV/computer switch supplied by Commodore, the noise is so great that is literally no picture at all. I have found that by connecting a wire in the range of 3 to 4 feet in length to the case of the switch the noise almost goes away. As far as I can tell, there is no electrical connection between the incoming and outgoing leads to the switch. Therefore, the wire must be acting as some form of inductively or capacitively coupled trap. That is as far as I've analysed the problem. Experiment with the length of the wire to optimize the reception. Jerry Herndon AT&T Bell Labs mh3bs!jwh
