I recently picked up a well-used CCTV camera at a hamfest which has composite video output (wow, I knew the composite setting on my Amiga's monitor would come in handy some say). After discussing my $15 purchase with my girlfriend, I decided it would be kind of neat if I could convert the composite to NTSC video so I could record from it on my VCR. Is there anyway to do this? -Tom

Your VCR will accept such a composite NTSC signal. Do you mean that the camera puts out RGB or luminance and colour difference signals (I & Q)? If so there are modulator chips available to develop the compsite signal. -- Michael Katzmann (VK2BEA/G4NYV/NV3Z) Please email to this address | Broadcast Sports Technology | 2135 Espey Ct. #4 \|/ Crofton MD 21114-2442 (301) 721-5151 ...uunet!opel!vk2bea!michael
