Thanks. I'd been looking under IC-781 and got lots of hits, but not _that_ hit.
I've already found one thing I was looking for in it - it's a +12V
unit (despite the silkscreen that says "125VAC1.6A" on the top of the
PCB. :-P ) Now I just need to identify what else is on the molex
connector (probably external brightness and contrast, based on where
the traces lead) and I'll be able to fire this thing up. The reason I
need it is that PIXIE video (RCA CDP 1861) is _not_ compatible with
modern video gear (VCRs, TVs, monitors, etc.) They took some
liberties with converting the video out to pseudo-RS170 video, and
only vintage video gear can handle the signal. Unfortunately, here at
Pole, they threw out all the old stuff years ago - we have lots of LCD
flat panels (lower power consumption than CRTs) and plenty of stuff
made since 2000, but not much in the way of older gear.
Thanks again for the pointer,
