I've got an unusual video board I'd like to
play with...
This board usually generates NTSC interlaced video, but some came with a
crystal and jumpering option to set the board for
60 hz vertical refresh. This is the version of the hardware I have. My
documentation is not complete, but...
I'm assuming the boards generate composite video exactly like NTSC, only
non-interlaced. The resolution is 256 by 256.
Exactly what sort of monitor can be fairly easily hacked to display this
video signal?
Just about any NTSC video monitor will work, no hacking required. I bet
you could find some ex-Apple II composite monitor laying around somewhere
that would work just peachy. Just don't expect razor sharp video -- NTSC
is best for MOVING pictures/gfx.
