Readers of the net often seek advice concerning ways to get NTSC (TV) output from their computers. Though there are ways to accomplish this, some of them are a bit expensive. The December 1989 issue of Radio-Electronics magazine includes an article describing how to build an RGB to NTSC convertor. It gives a source for a kit, which includes all necessary parts, for $29.95. The article includes diagrams for hooking the convertor up to an IBM CGA display setup, or an Atari ST. Also, the NTSC display is color--some net readers have pointed out that some CGA boards output only black and white images on their RCA jacks. -- "CROOK ROBS 16 BANKS -- Dave Fiske (davef@brspyr1.BRS.COM) WITH A CUCUMBER" Home: David_A_Fiske@cup.portal.com Headline from Weekly World News CIS: 75415,163 GEnie: davef
