Yip, this is exactly what is done in my French CoCo2B "Peritel (SCART)"
version. And the image quality even using a non shielded, non 75 Ohm
test cable is outstanding! As soon as I completed a new design of the
cable including a sync seperator I'll send some macro photos taken from
my NEC MultiSync 2D. I'm really begging for a service manual which
covers the Peritel version, otherwise I'll have to "re-engeneer" the
circuit...
