Can the Challenger drive a compostite video
monitor directly or is it
only designed to drive an RF modulator?
Joe
Composite video out, it requires an external RF adapter to hook up to TV.
I know that. But I hooked it to a composite monitor (NOT a TV and no
modulator) and only got garbage (no sync) and I wanted to know if the
Challenger generated composite video or something else.

It should be straight composite video.
You might check with the webmaster of (and check the links):

OSI's used straight discreet logic for video, there are to programmable
timing registers. With power applied you should get valid video signals
even if the rest of the computer is dead.
This makes debugging easier, you only need to look in the video section,
with newer computers the CPU has to start the video meaning you have to get
more working just to know whats wrong.
