[Coco] Help reviving an old CoCo 2

[Bill Pierce]

John, if that TV has a "coaxial" input as well, just use a standard "phono to coax" ($2-$5) adapter and eliminate the box. I ran all my Cocos this way.

Meanwhile, I believe I've tracked down my video quality problem that thatlittle TV/computer switch thing that it comes with.  A slight bump on theswitch means that the picture goes all wonky, and having an even passablepicture requires it in a very specific position.The box is riveted shut, though, so I can't just open it up to clean it veryeasily.  I suspect some dirty contacts maybe?  Does anybody have ideas ondealing with that switch box?  Is a box like that made for any other purposestill?Thanks,John> > On Sat, Nov 22, 2014 at
