To find out if your TV will work with it, plug the yellow video cable from your game system into the green component port on your TV. If you get a black and white image then your TV will work. If you do not get any picture then your TV is not compatible.

Post by: theoakwoody on June 24, 2017, 09:32:45 AM: I have zero soldering skills. I fixed the turbo cd ac adapter but that's as complicated as I get. I'm looking for someone to install the mod for me. I play my rgb modded av famicom on my tv with the the hd retrovision rgb to component cables so 240 works on my old tube tv just fine. Sorry if I'm being a nuisance I just thought you guys would know some good modders. Thanks again.

Post by: blueraven on June 26, 2017, 06:59:23 PM: Due to a busy schedule that has me AWOL a lot I can only take very limited work right now, so I unfortunately can't help you out... but I can vouch for Keith, MNKyDeth, and thesteve. They all do very good work and are pillars of the community.

Mobius, thanks also for offering to help, and welcome.
