Setting up my amiga

[amiman99]

1. You don't need the battery, it's only used for clock, unless you want clock on your system.
2. Chroma-Luma is Svideo, do you have 2 RCA connections or standard SVideo socket on you TV board. Pictures?

I have a normal tv with s-video , but the Amiga modulator has chroma luma outlets , so I need a cable chroma luma to s-video.
Now that i remember the modulator and the Amiga keyboard wont fit at the same time , because the modulator is too wide , I was thinking of buying a cable to extend the modulator , any idea what cable do I need ?

This is the cable you need SVideo to RCA http://www.cablesnmor.com/w17512.aspx

any idea where to get it ?

I think the only way for you is to make it your self with these http://www.ebay.com/itm/Set-of-DB23-Male-Female-Connector-23-PINS-For-Commodore-Amiga-500-1000-2000-/320955508620?pt=US_Vintage_Computers_Mainframes&hash=item4aba70678c
You could buy another SVideo adapter from here: http://www.amigamaniac.com/RGB_to_PAL_NTSC_adapter.html

I did send an email to amigamaniac , about a week ago , and still not answer , any idea why ?

I'm not sure, but I have another idea for you.
If you're good with solder, You can get these CGA to VGA adapters from EBAY GBS-8200 http://www.ebay.com/itm/CGA-EGA-YUV-TO-VGA-arcade-video-converter-US-Seller-/320901703710?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item4ab73b681e
Works great with standard VGA monitors.
I made a writeup how to make it work if you're interested.

It's not the BEST, but better then others, and cheap.

look promising , you can use this to connect to a pc monitor ? how is the image quality ? do you have any pictures ?

It work well in PC monitor.
Here is a thread on EAB with some pics and video. I made a box for it too, so the electronics would not be exposed. Many people got it to work, externally and internally.
