   Unless the designers of the card really pull a lot of tricks, the
RCA phono jack in back of the GS will remain just the same. If the
card is anything like the VOC card, the SS card will have its own set
of ports in back (both Apple RGB and IBM VGA style) than you plug
things into.  This simplifies everything a lot. Also, regular NTSC has
a rather limited resolution (color, pixels, etc); you'd lose a lot by
trying to put a good signal through a bad medium.
