Interested in 1, thanks!

Declaring interest in one - shipping cost to Denmark?

 

[Pyrofer]

I have WAY more requests here than stock ordered so I am afraid it will be a 1 per customer deal.

Cost of international post will be worked out at the time of post to get the best rates but it should never be more than £10 gbp. It varies from £5-10 depending on the service used for tracking etc.

No problem - let me know if one becomes available for me.

I am interested in purchasing one.

I'm interested in one , I know you have more requests that parts coming so if you do another run I'd like to add my name please

I'm interested in one of these boards too. Shipping to USA.

I did some preliminary tests with an IBM CGA, the result is stellar and better than the 74series logic converter that was available until now.
I will post some pics of my installation once it's done, currently mounting and tidying up the installation in my XT PC.

interested if and when you have a new batch ready.

Here is my take on installing thin in an XT PC , I have removed the SVHS port that was in the way, installed the adapter on a bracket and made a small DB9 cable to bring the CGA-output inside the case in order to feed it to the adapter:









like I wrote in my previous post the quality is really great

Urm... No need to split it I think.
Not sure what you would do with it though. it might work just feeding that combined sync to 1 of the inputs on my board or it might need inverting first (don't know what sort of sync that machine has). Or you could just add a resistor to that pin and not put the sync through my chip at all.
I think the first thing to do would be to try just feeding that to one pin, I would be interested in hearing how it all goes! I am quite surprised by the number of people here wanting this for a PC instead of a 128.

I don't know much about it myself - the spec here http://www.seasip.info/AmstradXT/1512tech/section1.html here just states 'Composite H & V sync'

As seen from the screenshot provided, this adapter works perfectly with real PC CGA graphics cards.

 

[tonyrocks]

Yes! Looks fabulous. I can't wait to get mine

 

[Pyrofer]

Ok. Apologies to everybody waiting
More than 2 months and the PCBs are definitely lost in the post. I am getting them remade now, but will be at least a few more weeks before they are ready.
While you wait, have a look at this game running directly to a VGA monitor with NO scandoubler on my 128.

Bet you didn't know the 128 could output VGA native eh.

Good news and good news. The PCBs are now being reproduced, so I will have a small number to assemble soon.
Also, I am in negotiation with a supplier in the US to manufacture and sell them locally in the US, meaning no import costs and lower postage for US buyers, as well as increased supply.
I can't express how sorry I am for the delays and rest assured I will never forgive China post for losing my parcel.

 

[tonyrocks]

Pyrofer, this is great news. Yes, China post can be interesting at times.

You got the VDC to push out 31kHz? Well done!
