Internal A2300 and Black Belt HAM-E ?
« on: June 21, 2006, 10:10:49 PM »
Hiya
After rummaging around my old attic, I came across some Amiga hardware.
These were given to me by my sisters american boyfriend who worked as a rep for Commodore. he was also a part time computer animator.

One is a 'Commodore Amiga A2300 Internal Genlock Card' apparently for the Amiga A3000 (which I have)

Also came across a weird white box made by 'Black Belt Systems'
Its about 210 x 210 x 40 mmm
Model Nos is 'HAM-E' and the label says 'HAM-E IRGB to RGB Processor'
Is this some sort of anti-ham device?..removes the ham fringing?. I dont know as Ive never used it.

Also in the box was an Amiga hand scanner (M-105)
(and in the bottom of the box was a Piston with big/small end attached, from a winning porsche Lemans car!!..very strange!)

Any ideas on the Black belt device?

It and DCTV were the first of the near 24 bit devices.   Black Belt systems went on to write there image conversion program, which the eventually moved to the PC.

I'd like to point out that the rumor about Commodore isnt true.
