1. Improving display quality:  You can use a normal audio "dubbing"
   cable with a 5 pin DIN connector on one end and four jacks on the
   other.  Use three of these leads (Video, Luminence (sp?), and Audio)
   connected at the rear of your monitor.  You can also mix video and
   luminence and feed this into the composite video input.  This works
   with monitors other than the 1701.  If this overdirves your monitor
   then add a small resistor (~100 ohm) to the luminence signal.

2. Mch language monitor, assembler, and memory map - Look for back
   issues of COMPUTE! magazine (late 82).  One issue had the best
   memory map I've seen to date.  Another contained Supermon64 by
   Jim Butterfield.  Also, the Toronto PET Users Group has one or
   more similar monitors in their program library.  Commodore offers
   an assembler, editor, loader package which I've seen available
   in the Chicago area for as little as $16.95.  I've been told
   that it is well worth the money.  Finally, COMPUTE! magazine has
   recently advertised that they will be producing a book with a title
   something like "Inside the C64" in early 1984.  You may want to
   keep an eye open for this.
