Handy Atari
Accessories
This month I
had the chance to chat with Rick D. at More
Than Games Atari web site. Rick is
a long time Atari user in the Austin and Houston
Texas area. At December's Atari meeting
Rick brought out several of his 8-bit goodies
and I thought it would be nice to share this
with our Atari readers.
Rix C.A.T. has
several new Atari items available from More Than Games:
Atari 8 bit computer
audio/video break-out box (EH0101). This adapter
brings composite video, chroma, luminance, and mono audio
out to RCA jacks and a S-Video jack. A far superior
picture than the standard RF connector. All-in-one that fits neatly behind the A8
unit. $25.00. (Note: not all A8 computers had chroma
and luminance
brought out to the monitor jack, information
included)
Atari Jaguar
audio/video break-out box (GJ0001)
This adapter
brings composite video, chroma, and luminance to
RCA and S-Video jacks, and stereo audio out to a 1/8-inch jack. A far superior picture than
the standard RF connector
on the back. All-in-one that fits neatly behind
the Jaguar unit. $30.00.
Atari Jaguar
BJL game loader system modification kit (GJ0002) and
cable adapter (GJ0003). The mod kit gets
soldered inside the Jaguar. Once
done (or with
game cartridges that have the loader software built
in) you can download games and program files to the
Jaguar memory to run. The adapter plugs into the Jaguar
controller 2 port or the PC parallel port. You supply
a DB25MF cable or a HD15MF cable (fully wired!)
to hook
up the two machines. Software for PC, demos, and instructions
on CD with mod kit. The adapter is $12.00,
mod kit is $20.00.
Check out these
very cool new products for your Atari 8 bit
and Jaguar systems.
Until next time...
