Wanted: A520 Modulator

thinlega · 29 December 2002, 08:43

I need a modulator......so if anyone has one going cheap or for free then please contact me...

jmmijo · 29 December 2002, 10:07

So what do you suppose shipping would cost from the states to the UK then?

I have one of these that is collecting dust for sure

thinlega · 29 December 2002, 19:18

thanks for the offer!!

Just one thing......will a US A520 work with my pal amiga and output a pal signal???

I bet an US A520 outputs an NTSC signal. I think it might work with your PAL Amiga but wouldn't output a signal suitable for your work.

You must look for an A520 in Europe, bro!

thinlega · 30 December 2002, 08:40

I will keep looking.....

for some unknown reason ebay uk has seen a huge rise in the a520 price! they have been going for £10-£15!!!!!

That's funny, it's ~1$ here, I don't have any spare ones though, my second monitor's RGB input doesn't work so I'm using an a520

Akira · 30 December 2002, 14:33

Can you try to score an A520 modulator for thinlega? You guys use PAL, right?

30 December 2002, 16:23

Ok I'll go for it this Saturday and post the results here

We use PAL yes.

Why don't you use a rgb to scart cable ( if your tv is not too old, it should have a scart port ).

Also i've seen on a catalogue ( melchioni elettronica - the 2000 one, but maybe they have still something ) that cable amiga ->scart, with audio.

Maybe even in your country you can find such a cable for few money.

Or you can build one

Thinlega will not use the modulator on a normal "TV setup", he plans on connecting the machine to devices that will only take either Composite or S-Video signals (projectors, plasmas, production mixers, etc)

SCART will be of no use. Hence the need of an A520!

I couldn't find one this time but will keep looking...
