Hi - I have a friend who works for a television station which would
like to use some computer graphics in between their shows.  Since it is
a low budget operation, they are using an Atari 800. (very low budget
obviously)  However, according to my friend, the 800 does not put out
enough volts to generate a good image.  He thinks that it can be
modified to do this.  They are writing the screens to a VCR, and I
don't know too much more about it.  Does anyone have experience doing
this or any suggestions?

Thanks
