Good Luck Charles, I bought one from Olson when they first became available. I was in my teens and everyone thought I was crazy, how can those two big boxes record color TV, you threw your money away. My big problem was no consumer TV had video outputs, when I would try to tap into it I did not have a buffer and messed up the luminesience. I found a small B/W Sony monitor that had a wide enough bandwidth to pass color. You should have seen my friends faces watching Star Trek in color and I could never make them understand how I got color from a B/W tv set. No one noticed the skip field, I think they were more amazed that this large noisey machine really worked. Several folks asked me to build one for them but by then Olson had sold out.
