Wanted : screenshot of VDG font on PC-6001A

Hello.
I want to get screenshot screenshot of VDG font on PC-6001A.
To show VDG font on PC-6001A, the method is simple.

Run this program on 16KB.

10 SCREEN1:CLS
20 FOR I=32TO255:pRINT CHR$(I);:NEXT
30 FOR I=32TO255:pOKE &HC000+I-32,0:NEXT

I have the 16K version, this it the program that I ran, here are the results:

When the program runs this is the first set of characters that appear on the screen, but you have to be quick, they only stay visible for a second.

After the screen clears, this is the 2nd set of characters that appear on the screen.

Thanks very much!

It is just match to Japanese PC-6001.
That means PC-6001A VDG is same as PC-6001.

VDG : M5C6847P-1 ( Mitsubishi, compatible with Motorola MC6847 )

The font is nearly same as MC6847's PAL square font except (*).
