OK...and I did!  Here is what the chip is I'm talking about:

48-pin DIP

First line: 	C= CSG
Second    :	8362R8
Third     :	3789 28

It is the biggest chip on the board.  I therefore assumed it was
the de-interlacer.  What is it??

I also noticed they use the 'intech' RGB DAC- think it's the same
one that Microway uses on the flicker-fixer.
