A500+ from Pal to NTSC
Reading around I have seen information for the A600 but not for the 500+. I have a PAL unit and want to swtich to NTSC. Aside from swapping the Agnus for an NTSC one, is there anything else?
thanks |

Instead of doing that, would you consider cross shipping for an NTSC model? I am looking for a PAL A500.

Note that he's got an A500 plus (+) not a regular A500! |

I finally changed the Agnus and put in an NTSC one, that did the trick, working perfectly i NTSC mode with 1.5mb chip ram and all

You might want to consider swapping the crystal too, just to get that perfect NTSC machine. :-)

I dunno for sure but I would presume
4.43 MHz = PAL 3.579 MHz = NTSC Although they may be a multiple of this? |

Slightly different: 28.6363 MHz for NTSC crystal units.
PAL is 28.8375, IIRC (no schematics at hand). |
