Commodore.ca: The PET, VIC, 128, 64 & More Forum

Hello, does anyone have any tips how to get a Vic 20 up and running with today's TVs or monitors? Thanks.

An RF modulator that has 300 ohm output (coaxial) should do it. There are straight-through adapters (all one piece) that do this now, I've got one in a box somewhere.

You can also buy S-Video adapters for the C64, but not sure about backwards compatibility with the vic-20.

Or more simply, get a DIN video cable for the VIC-20 and connect the composite output to the composite input of the t.v..

Truly,

I didn't think of that. Good tip.
