Does anyone have any straightforward recommendations for inserting test signals into output channels on a CP65, assuming one doesn't have a CE SG-1? It'd be nice to be able to route a known signal (sine wave) out an arbitrary output of the CP65.

Is it simple to mod the Cat85C to take external inputs?

I suppose otherwise I can play games with a non-sync source swapping amplifiers (and swapping Cat64 cards), but it gets a bit messy, and makes level comparisons a bit tricky.

Thanks.

connect the test tone to either the mag or the digital input terminal

Wow. How stupid of me. Of course! Thanks, Gordon.
