   BTW:   
      
   I made a CGA interface for one of my Genie I's (TRS-80 model I clone)   
   recreating the color kit I have from old. The CGA monitor takes logic   
   level signals with NTSC timing.   
      
   Actually, first I created a CGA interface for an RGB card for Apple IIe.   
      
   This color kit with CGA output for the Genie I is only one GA22V10 and   
   it is transparent, doesn't intefere with the original output. I actually   
   thought I'd modify one of my model I's in the same way.   
      
   But, it's long between the CGA monitors nowadays. They also tend to get   
   good prices on eBay.   
      
   I have sometimes dreamt of making a more advanced thingy that converts   
   to multisync but it will have to be a microcontroller that reads the   
   signal and recreate it as something suitable for a multisync monitor.
