Hi all:
I just got an old //e with a Sup'R'Mod II RF modulator - I hooked it up as
expected to the TV (my 3 year old loves Moon Patrol in mono, so I figured
he'll love it more in color ;) but no joy - anyone out there got docs for
this? A scan would be lovely, mail would be fine and compensated. Let me
know, thx!
Regards,
Gord

The Sup'R'Mod II was an RF modulator. It has a 4 pin inline berg
connector to input composite video and power (as used on Apple ][, IBM
CGA, etc.), and has an "RCA Phono" jack for output of UHF video on channel
33.
If you have a "modern" TV, with "Video IN", then yank out the RF mod,
and
connect directly. Do NOT connect the phono of the Sup'R'Mod to the Video
input.
Otherwise, with an older TV, connect the phono jack of the Sup'R'Mod to
the UHF antenna connections of the TV. Tune the TV to UHF channel 33.
NOT "cable" 33.
