Some time ago,
someone on this list posted a URL for a site where
someone had homebrewed something to that effect and were using a
'scope as the XY display; it was all hooked up to a computer so that
they could draw images, write words etc. on the 'scope's display.
Anyone have the URL handy? Wouldn't mind
looking at that again, but if
I filed it I can't find it...
Dunno if this is what you were thinking; and it's kinda offtopic as it
uses a PC & Soundcard to draw the images; tho it would seem possible to
do it with ontopic hardware...
Actually, that wasn't the one I was thinking of, although it was one I'd seen
before and forgotten about - so thanks for sharing!
I'm thinking that something like that (though obviously not porn-based :-)
would make a nice little self-contained display for our museum. PC + soundcard
under the desk, nice old Tek 'scope running as a little scrolling message
display with the museum name or something... I don't know, it's oddball
enough to be quite eye-catching, but fairly trivial to implement.
cheers
