@GTV reviews the Cosmic Fantasy 1-2 Switch collection by Edia, provides examples of the poor English editing/localization work. It's much worse for CF1. Rated "D" for disappointment, finding that TurboGrafx CF2 is better & while CF1's the real draw, Edia screwed it up...

$340 shipped or best offer. I would trade for a boxed Turbo Duo.

The Duo-RX has a region mod, with switch located under hu card door, UV (purple) power led, original controller and power supply, and rgb to component converter installed. For some reason the LED looks blue in the picture, but it is purple.

I just got a Supergrafx that had an RF mod, I removed it and noticed a capacitor was missing from C117. Can anyone open there's up and give me the value of the missing capacitor? The system doesn't have composite video from the AV port without out it, still works from the expansion port though.

EDIT: This should have been posted in the repair section, so mods feel free to move it.

$17 shipped, includes 4551 chips pre-soldered. These chips are for region modding TG16/PCE/Duo's. I had to change the pinout at the bottom so it would incorporate both SMD and DIP MC14551 versions. The H-A were not supposed to be there so on install they should be ignored and it goes like this

From Left to Right Pin:

Also when installing instead of using a 5V source, I have found that using the IN pin on the Voltage regulator is FAR more stable and you won't have issues where some games will crash after a few minutes of play.

$17 shipped for one and $15 each additional, includes 4551 chips pre-soldered. PCB's without the 4551's are $12 shipped for one and $10 each additional. If you want them quicker add $4 for priority mail. These chips are for region modding TG16/PCE/Duo's.

So I modded a couple of units with S-Video using a CXA1645 to convert the RGB into S-Video and a CVS287 to convert RGB to Component. I noticed a big difference in clarity and colors. It looks like the original composite signal is washed out on the TG16/PCE/Duo and much better with the CXA1645. I'm using a 27" JVC CRT SDTV.
