   Apple IIe colors wrong (timing problem)

   From: mitch2gs@hotmail.com   
      
       Is there a way to adjust the color phase shift timing on the Apple IIe?   
   Oddly BOTH my Apple IIe's (different revision motherboards) do not   
   display colors correctly. In Hi-Res, blue is turquoise, violet is dark   
   purple, and green appears a sickly brownish-green. I can "correct"   
   this by adjusting the tint/hue on my composite displays, but found   
   it strange two separate Apple IIe's would have an identical problem.   
      
       By contrast, my Apple II Plus, my 3 Apple IIc's, Apple IIc Plus   
   and IIGSes display colors properly without any display adjustment.   
      
       On the Apple II Plus there is a trim-pot to adjust the timing, but   
   none on the Apple IIe. Just wondering how to correct this problem,   
   could there be a faulty IC or crystal affecting the color timing?
