How to test my Amiga, and did I get Amiga 500 or 500 PLUS?

Thanks, I dont care about quality at the moment, I really have no room in my room to put a CRT like thingy so using my PC LCD is the only option.
 
In case of TV tuner, will any kind of TV tuner do the job? I mean will a cheapo 20$ usb stick TV tuner (with antena in port) be OK? Or I should go for a expensive good quality BOX like ones?

You said you like to solder, then you should get one of the CGA-VGA converters from Ebay http://www.ebay.com/itm/ARCADE-GAME-CONVERTER-CGA-RGB-YUV-EG-A-to-1-VGA-HD-video-output-GBS-8200-/281028070157?pt=Video_Games_Accessories&hash=item416e940b0d and DB23 connector.
Works fine, there are many threads about it, even from me, showing which pins where they go etc.
Good project to start with.
