I hooked up my Oscope to the X and Y out - I am getting signal, and flipped
it for horizontal view for the second signal. I am no pro at using my
Oscope, or I am sure this would be far easier than it is working out to be.
I did at least figure out how to get the XY to plot properly on the display,
so I can see the game play. I have yet to figure out if the output is too
low on either side yet..

One thing I did see was that every now and then the display 'goes away',
only to return 2-3 seconds later. It will then stay ok for 20-30 secs or so,
this go away again. Any thoughts?
