I'm almost certain that the video is standard, plain
old NTSC RS-170, which you could probably hook up to
any modern TV having a video input with a simple
mechanical adapter. Much as it makes me ill to mention
this, but Radio SH**, which has gotten enormously
worse in just the last 3 months, probably will have an
adapter to a more modern RCA for it. You MIGHT be able
able to get a decent display from an RF modulator but
at 64 characters by 16, it would be close.
