Greetings, a couple CoCo questions:
1) I have a CoCo1 with the little $2 RF adapter, with a coax-looking cable that goes from the adapter into an LCD TV that I found with a coax-style RF input. It works fine, I get nice audio and video from the CoCo1. I tried this same cable with the CoCo3, but it's not working. I tried CH3/4, no go. I plugged back into CoCo1, cable works fine there. The RCA style (red/white) cables work on the CoCo3 and same old LCD TV. Reading thru the CoCo3 manual it seems this same RF cable ought to work. Any thoughts? (I was hoping the CoCo3 could mirror outputs to both the RF and RCA outputs at the same time)
2) I ordered an Atari to 5-pin DIN joystick adapter, but none of my Atari joysticks are working on the CoCo. Specifically I was trying to get Shanghai to work. It will only move along the 8-way direction, not a smooth movement of the "pointer" across the screen. Can anyone recommend any Atari with adjustable sensitivity? (or if anyone has a spare Deluxe Tandy joystick to sell, PM me)
Thanks!
