[Coco] French CoCo

[Stan Blazejewski]

An 'RF' to HDMI converter seems like a very strange device but if it 
really is, it would need to be tuned into the RF channel that the CoCo 
is producing and I would expect it to be putting out random noise on the 
screen until it's tuned in.  (much like tuning in and old analogue TV).  
I suspect what you really have is a analogue to HDMI converter (quite 
common).  Can you describe what the input connections look like (and how 
many)?
