Attached is an update of my TV_WText object. Added are broadcast video-with-sound capabilities and an additional decimal function that right justifies its output in a fixed-width field.

I played around with this when I was making 8bc.

I had it running through the same resistors used for composite output, I didn't get a great output though.

For 8bc and graphics.spin you have to change two things.

Change pins to %001_0100
This sets pins 12, 13, 14 for broadcast instead of baseband.

Change broadcast to the frequency in Hz, for example, 55_250_000 for channel two.
You can use other frequencies. (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/North_American_broadcast_television_frequencies#VH F_bands) Use the video carrier frequency.
