hi,
i take a very good out direct from the TIA chip, there are good schematics @
Atariage where you can understand pin's functions.
modding Atari junior needs a little more care than other models, because
junior's TIA isn't socketed, but solded direct on the pcb.
i want to add a description about the difference between NTSC and PAL TIA chip.
from my experience and what i looked at the schematic on Atariage, it looks like
the PAL TIA only has ONE audio pin. anyway PAL TIA does have two oscillators,
but the two channels are mixed inside the TIA.
WARNING FOR EUROPEAN ATARI USERS:
BE CAREFUL, YOU CAN'T GET 2 AUDIO OUTS FROM PAL 2600!!!
