It would flip to 50 MHz move the top of the screen higher, but still be
limited to the max NTSC overscan display of 237 v Amos or 241 v WB.
To get a true PAL screen you need to set PAL in the early boot menu 3.0,
and up.

Thanks for the prog, but it is not a TRS like the old PC DOS TRS's, so TFX
just shut it down with the WB.
I need something nasty like a virus that will kick TFX's ass if it tries to
shut it down.
