  • Still stuck in the 1970's with a cheap black-and-white TV? Welcome to the 1980's with this black-and-GREEN TV inspired by the latest computer technology!

    Great project. Green and black is awesome imo, probably because i use an analog Oscilloscope :)

    The fuzziness seems to be caused by the RF modulator in the converting box. You could add a composite video input to the TV, so you could get even sharper picture.

    Reminds me of my childhood - we had a colour TV that had some dry solder joints somewhere and it would often turn green. Drove us crazy.

    Some very early TV receivers had a green CRT.

    An amber CRT would be intresting on another monocrome CRT TV

    wow, that is a beautiful conversion. And the old tv is awesome. We had worse things in the 90's...

    I was going to try this about 30 years ago with a scrapped out monitor, but the plant manager wouldn't let me take it, probably worried that people would scrap things just to take them home. Anyway, I'm glad to see someone try it. You might find some businesses who would pay for such a thing. It would be great in a storefront window ; people would stop just to stare at it.
    PS: I've never seen a CRT TV with focus adjustment; could they have done an unusually good job of hiding it? I wonder how Sony adjusted for a sharp picture at the factory or if the schematics have any clues.

    undervolting an oxide coated filament is a sure way to shorten the life of the tube. it is meant to be operating at about 1050C (or is it 1150C?). and you don't want the cathode poisoned by inadequate outgassing heat.

    Cool. A friend of mine is actually using a green screen monitor as a display for watching DVDs in his garden shed.

    I did a simular thing recently. Only for me I used a "5 CRT from some monitor modual I could not figure out the pinout off. Swaped the CRT into a 5" CCTV monitor. Now I have a mini green screen monitor I can use with my vintage computers.

    I just received a black & white TV and stripped it carefully as the wooden box was rotten. I kept the crt and the board. Now you have me thinking.

    you should put some kind of ring modulation effect on the audio to fit the whole sci fi vibe.

    Very cool! I would love to swap the tube in my Atari monochrome b&w with a green or amber tube. Would be a lot easier on the eyes after hours of music composition and sequencing. Any thoughts?

    NTSC is still a 60Hz refresh, it's just it's just that the 60Hz is divided among two fields, even and odd. So each field gets 30Hz each. Interlacing is weird, but that's why 30Hz had a horrible strobe, because NTSC TV is not 30Hz, that's just too low.

    • @georgef551

      59.94fps. It had to be lowered to allow color information to fit onto the signals when color TV was introduced.

  • @hakemon
    @hakemon 8 років тому

    The reason you are having contrast issues by the way is because the TV has poor DC restoration or none at all.

  • @DAVIDGREGORYKERR
    @DAVIDGREGORYKERR 7 років тому

    would it not be a better idea to break the input image into 7 data-bits 1 start-bit 1.5 stop-bits at 9600 baud and see if you can get an image that way.

      Usually, if you touch the connections, especially on a "hot chassis" set. If you only touch the plastic, you'll be fine, though.

  • @wa4aos
    @wa4aos 9 років тому

    I can appreciate the technical merit of your project as an experiment but not to pop your bubble, the gist of the project begs WHY???? This is like a color set that has a bad tube with a shorted or open red gun or a driver issue driving the red gun. Personally, I would FAR rather watch vintage TV on a BW screen favoring the contrast differential capability. Again, I salute the efforts.. Good luck!
