Thanks for the info. It looks like you should be able to do this kind
of full-screen color-killer on a IIe by using a general purpose NPN
transistor (2N3904, 2N2222, etc.) to shunt the Color Burst signal. The
transistor's collector would connect to the junction of R15 and R13; the
emitter lead would go to Ground. The transistor should be connected directly
to the R15-R13 junction and ground.
The base lead would go through a 2k-3k Ohm resistor to an annunciator
output, such as An-3 at pin 12 on the 16-pin J-15 Game connector. PEEKing
the appropriate addresses should flip Color OFF and ON.
