I know what you mean about the page numbers - we used 14 lines for the test pages and bridged BBC1 CEEFAX onto the remaining two. CEEFAX was used to create interest and demonstrate the capabilities of Teletext but, in reality, the primary purpose was to test the capability of a large, private, cable TV system by means of an error counter piggy-backed onto the TIfax decoder.

Re: IMOGen Test Card & Teletext Generator
Excellent work Parabola! (I want one!)
This thread has reminded me to root out a S-VHS tape and record the Irish analogue stations teletext before ASO in August this year |
Re: IMOGen Test Card & Teletext Generator
Thanks, Andy.
Well, it's possible that there may be a spare from the initial build of 10 units, once everything shakes out. If so I'll let you know. I would possibly build more if there were to be any demand, but the PCB already needs redesigning due to one component becoming obsolete in through hole form. |
Re: IMOGen Test Card & Teletext Generator
You can get SMT to through-hole adaptors for some IC packages. That may be an easier/cheaper option than redesigning the PCB.

Re: IMOGen Test Card & Teletext Generator
Thanks, Paul. Yes, that's certainly another option.

http://www.pges.co.uk/imogen/index.html I was contacted about using my photos of my Korting showing test cards from the IMOGen and of course I said yes and they're here on his website along with plenty of information about the test card generator. Cheers, Tas:thumbsup: |
Re: IMOGen Test Card & Teletext Generator
I have just taken delivery of my Imogen from Graham, very impressed and seems a bargain to me. Very useful alongside an Aurora and great fun being able to get Text back on my colour TVs. For more info have a look at the website in the link above.
A happy customer Chris |

I have also just taken delivery of my Imogen from Graham and it is a super piece of kit ! which I can well recommend ,
I have attached a few photos but they do not do it justice, perhaps it means that some full 625 restorations are in order now that I have been dragged screaming into 1967 ! another very happy customer peter |
Re: IMOGen Test Card & Teletext Generator
I took delivery of one last week as well. I'm delighted with it as well.
