That's actually what I am currently doing right now.


I just wanted to take it one step further, and instead pull the sound from
the CoCo 3's RGB 10 pin IDC connector, seeing as how three wires in my 10
pin ribbon cable comeing from the CoCo 3 are currently unused (i tied the
two ground pinouts on the CoCo 3 RGB connector to the one ground pin at
the other end (the 6 pin DIN cable plugged into my C1084 monitor)..

I just need to know how to solder the extra unused wires to an RCA male
plug to make this cable a little more "complete" and professional. I know
that pin 7 at the CoCo 3 RGB connector is SOUND output, so that leaves the
two unused wires in my ribbon cable which are available for
ground....assuming I need them?

Anyone know?
