Default 819-Line TV From PC - First Pictures!

Hi,

Having got the Sondyna TV working, it was only a matter of time...

Having worked out the X modeline I just had to try it. It's all a bit of a lashup at the moment using a UHF PAL-I modulator. Vision bandwidth is nowhere near the huge 10MHz demanded by System E; so horizontal resolution is a little compromised. Building a System E modulator is on my list.

It's weird watching TV and hearing no timebase whistle. I can hear 15.625kHz, but not 20.475kHz...

The set also needs further attention, by the time I'd taken these photos I'd started to notice a smell... the familiar one you get just before a large electrolytic lets go, so it got switched off rather rapidly...

If there's a TV demo arranged for NVCF next year and I've sorted the set out so it'll last the day, would anyone like to see 819-line in action?

Regards, Kat
