Hi all

just got my vg 8020 but the rf picture is poor, it has a monitor socket that appears the same as the commodore 64.

Does anyone know where i can a scart or av lead that will fit the vg8020?
many thanks

Use the composite video output from the VG8020. Just buy a composite cable and use any of the cable parts and wind them up to a TV that has these inputs, your image will be good enough then. Making a scart signal directly from your VDP is possible but you will need to compare the service manuals. If the TMS video processor gives out RGB and csync its easy to build a scart out. You will need some transistors and resistors and solder the thing together.
