I recently came across this excellent open-source design by Lucy Fauth @lucysrausch to convert a Sony Watchman FD-10A CRT TV into a Bluetooth audio connected XY Oscilloscope for playing Oscilloscope music, and had to build one! It also has another mode called Lorenz Attractor, which is pretty sweet. I've tentatively called my build of it Vectorboy because a group of us on the VEXTREME Discord server are building them and trying to figure out how to make it a portable Vectrex!

I've been keeping a detailed log of the BOMs I used for ordering parts, and updated them after building and getting this working here: github.com/technobly/sony-scopeman/tree/main/hardware/bom-vectorboy-v1.3

I also added some pictures and helpful info for the build in the main README: github.com/technobly/sony-scopeman

Software has been updated to build correctly as well.

If you'd like to join us on discord: discord.gg/TBwxd36e3f

We'll be iterating on this design, and maybe even Lucy will see this and stop by :D
