Am I correct in saying that you cannot directly view the characters off the monoscope? It would be cool to be able to display a bunch of characters on a small crt like a NIMO tube.
Correct, you cannot. You need to drive the Monoscope like a CRT, with a raster, then read off the output and drive something else with similar raster deflections.
Actual terminals (e.g. Conrac) were built with this chargen, there are fleeting references online.
For more details see what I already posted:
TubeTimeUS, who for all I know is on this list, has blogged in detail about these: http://tubetime.us/index.php/2018/06/04/a-vacuum-tube-rom/ https://twitter.com/TubeTimeUS/status/1002324117226287104 I own a handful of these tubes so I'm keen to recapitulate their work. --Toby
