Sharp An-300sc Info - UK Vintage Radio Repair and Restoration Discussion Forum

Just picked up a PAL-NTSC converter at the local fleamarket. it has switches for A P S or N (input) and P or N (output), and little else (so looks like all 3 standards accepted, dunno what 'A' is...)

Anyone point me to some info on this beast? I'd liek to know whatits capablilities are, i.e. is it colour subcarrier only or the full caboodle like frame rates etc.

I'd say it was quite recent, ie.e 1990s. it is small, about the size of an average freeview stb, and plastic build.

cheers Brian. Seems like fairly decent kit, certainly worth a gamble for 3 €! Haven't yet got anything set up with which to try it, but will post back as and when.

'A' might be an Auto setting? Just a thought.
