A while back I came across the Mamba, an after marker Amiga A520 alternative. The A520 is a TV modulator that allows you to connect your Amiga to a TV via its RF or Composite video output.
The A520 was very reliable, so why were there aftermarket alternatives made? In this video, we'll take a look.
