Do you have a continuity tester (ohmmeter)?

Presumably, the three RCA jacks will have common grounds (the outside of the
RCA connectors), and you can check which pin of the din plug goes to the center
of each RCA jack. The CoCo manual has the pinouts.

As for MESS crashing on CSAVE, you're probably one of the few who have actually
tried it, so it may be a bug.

JV's emulator has always had speed issues, as the original documentation says
that a 486DX-33 would be "overkill". Even on the slowest setting it runs way,
way, way too fast on my PC, even when it was only a 350 MHz AMD setup. 

JC's version has a *slightly* more powerful method to get closer to the right
speed, but still not accurate. Try DK's emulator if you can't get MESS working.
