  wasn't there a hack on the mainboard to convert
the composite to colour

It's not a hack, it's a jumper on S39 on later Beebs (or add a small
capacitor on early ones, which I admit is a hack, even if "official").
 You don't need that for the UHF output, though, only for the composite
video on the BNC socket.
