Thanks very much; I'll rebuild things (again...)

For what it's worth, here's the present state of evolution of the mess I've been working on myself; it started off just suming with resistors, then the followers appeared, then the common load resistor turned into a current source, then I cobbled together a mess of DC restoration and sync circuitry. Then gave up after seeing what came out of it and started thinking about video opamps...

It sort-of works; the sum of RGB is spot-on, the syncs are reasonable, but the black level wanders about a bit...

I'll freely admit I'm not too good with these new-fangled 3-legged sandy fuses

I'm a lot more at home with microprocessors and other digital stuff, programming and audio as long as I can use either valves or opamps...

I guess I ought to stick to what I'm good at, and avoid video circuitry...?

Regards, Kat
