Remember: Electrons know no bounds.

By which I mean... (*clears throat* *plays middle C*)

The power supply's connected to the Mod-ulator.
The modulator's connected to the Co-ax
The coax is connected to the sock-et
The socket is connected to the... MC14335P (I think)
The MC14335P is connected to the ASIC...

And hear the word of the SAM :)

So basically, I'm betting that you're getting crap from the modulator 
(due to the dodgy PSU problems you had), which is entering the composite 
video generator chip and screwing up your colours :)

Yep :) Mark and Adrian gave me one as a gift at the first gloucester 
show (my original one was dead).

Eek! I'll get to it!
