Mark, a NTSC converter would be welcomed! As you say, why buy a Genlock if all you need is better NTSC output…(I hope it's better!) Keep us informed as to the progress of the converter. I for one am in need of a high quality NTSC converter…..and I'm sure there are many others. GreG

Better than what? Defineatly better than Commodore or C-whatever (can't remember the name!). What features would _you_ like? We have several options. Right now we have: Composite video (correct levels into 75 ohms) Separate Chroma and Luma RF output, channels 2 and 3 Audio in (for RF modulator) DB23 feedthough jack (allows use of RGB monitor at the same time) Like our other products, it would be in a custom injection molded case with a cable, good packaging etc. etc. Would be 80-90 dollars. What is important to you? We would appreciate any input you could give us. Send Email if you would like, and don't mind getting technical! I'm one of teh people doing the design. Thanks – Mark

Mark, I think the RGB pass-through would be a very nice feature. Actually, I really don't consider it a feature, it's more of a 'must have' IMHO. -John

Thanks John, we feel the same way! We don't believe in swapping cables<grin>. Mark
