This is not your father's standard GBS-8200! I have found a 15KHz-compatible monitor locally and no longer need this scandoubler.

This specific unit has an Arduino ESP8266 microcontroller flashed with the GBS-Control custom firmware. What does this do you might ask? If provides you with a clean(er) signal than the stock GBS-8200 signal. Vertical "jailbars"? None. Halo around the mouse pointer? Nope. Annoying white dot artefacts? Nada.

Has ability to add various video filters such as scanlines. Has a web-based user interface accessible via any Web browser. Has built-in overscan/underscan so you can make your Miggy's picture fit your screen.

-DB-23 connector is a special 3d-printed connector using only the pins required by the GBS-8200.
-Bottom of the card has been RF-shielded with copper tape.
-Comes in a nice sturdy 3d-printed case and a quality 5v AC adapter.

More info on the custom firmware: https://github.com/ramapcsx2/gbs-control/wiki/Build-the-Hardware
3D-printed case, from Canadian-based online store COREi64: https://corei64.com/shop/index.php?route=product/product&product_id=71

Unit works on PAL and NTSC Amigas.
