5.5" B/W CRT TV - maybe composite mod?
Posted: Mon Apr 22, 2019 4:15 pm
Hi
I have a 5.5" B/W CRT TV that has VHF/UHF input. But there's no composite.
I've opened it up today, and see there are "holes" in the back for more outputs. And I see on the board there are a lot of "missing" components. So this is probably a PCB made for different models of the TV, and some extra components added for the models that had composite output.
I have no education in electronics, but I have made the circuits I've shared with the forum. You have been a great help. I am very aware that messing with CRTs are dangerous, and have huge respect and don't touch anything when the lit is taken off the TV.
Would it be very difficult to add composite input to this CRT?
