Hi,
This might interest someone here, so I thought I'd post it.
I've been working on a colour demodulator for my Apple //c. It converts the
output to component video suitable for any television with component inputs.
The original composite output of the //c becomes the luminance input and the
circuit extracts the red and blue difference signals.
It's not 100% perfect but it does display colour that mostly resembles the
original NTSC colour palette.

If you have two MC1496's, feel free to build it. I'd like to see if it works
unmodified (or with any modifications) on an NTSC model Apple ][ or //.
The reason why I made this is because I don't have a PAL modulator for my //c.
My television does support NTSC, but the Australian version of the machine
doesn't output the correct timings for NTSC... it was designed to be attached
to the PAL modulator.
Cheers,
Alexis.
