I think, all the signal's on at the A2000 (not B2000 !) video slot are
available in an A1000, i.e. color clock / analog video / sync signal's.
Even the digital (TTL) signal's are availble, of course there's only
one bit per color, but that's enough with 4 grey levels.

Thus you should be able to connect the VIKING card to an A1000 (maybe an A500),
though you might need an extra power supply. (And of course you should be
familiar with a soldering iron).
