There's the 8th bit (MSB,$80,bit 7) of $c021. Setting it to 1 to removes
the color burst from the composite video signal (B&W). The other  bits
are reserved, so better read $c021 first, OR with $80, and write the
result back to $c021.

And the 6th bit ($20,bit 5) of $c029. Setting it to 1 displays DHGR in
B&W. The other bits are reserved, so better read $c029 first, OR with
$20, and write the result back to $c029.
