Thank you! I am going in this direction, with thanks to a certain individual who happens to have such a device, and is willing to pass it along.


See if you can find a good image of the old test pattern and burn it
to a DVD. That will help people see how sharp the image really is. It
will also show poor IF alignment that was done with crude Sweep/Marker
generators rather that a multiburst system.

Let me know if that doesn't pan out. I am familiar with a lot of
brands and models of modulators. I have a nearly complete analog headend
system, in storage. I just need a couple full height relay racks, and
dipexers for 60 channels!

At one time my job was to repair headend equipment for a top 100 MSO
cable group. We also up linked WGN, WOR and operated the first
Electronic Program Guide on a subcarrier on our WGN transponder. We also
had WFMT on another WGN subcarrier.

Sigh. That was 35 years ago. I did over 10,000 repairs, in four
years including microwave equipment the OEMs refused to support.


Never **** off an Engineer!

They don't get mad.

They don't get even.

They go for over unity! ;-)
