Hi
I've already mailed to Microvitec but i'm sorry to say their answer was
"Unfortunately we don't have anything to offer which is compatible with the
QL."

I'm currently using the RF output but I ordered a converter board
from
Jammaboards to be able to hook the RGB output to a VGA monitor so
that
should help isolate the problem. Well, actually I won't be needing
the
TV output anymore if the converter board works as advertised but it
would be nice to be able to fix the problem anyway.

Does your television have a SCART/Peritel connector? While you wait
for the RGB converter board and take time to experiment with it, you
might be able to get a slightly better picture via the SCART/Peritel
connection to the television if you have suitable plugs (QL 8-pin DIN
plug and a Peritel or SCART connector for the TV)
There's an article about how to do this on my website at:
http://www.dilwyn.me.uk/docs/hardware/index.html
Tony Firshman (TF Services) has in the past supplied me with a
ready-made suitable lead for the QL. I forget the price, although I
think it was about 10 or 12 pounds plus our Value Added Tax (VAT). For
me, anyway, this type of connection didn't give as good a picture as a
proper monitor connection, but it was better than the RF picture.
There is also the possibility of getting a second-user QL monitor.
Microvitec in England have some refurbished QL monitors, according to
a member of this list in March this year - the contact email address
given was sales AT microvitec DOT co DOT uk . They have TTL-compatible
LCD displays, though these cost a thousand pounds or more, and also
have some of their old QL monitors.
And I guess that both eBay and Rich Mellor's "Sell My Retro" sites
might have QL monitors from time to time too.
