Oh well, another one bytes the dust. I think I'm going to have to go back to
playing around with splitting the syncs, converting them to analog signals
and then using some of the Amiga sync doublers again
(http://www.livewire.com.au/aminet/dirs/hard_hack.html) as the Amiga has the
same output (frequency wise) as the BBC. Never got it to work though yet.
