I was hoping this. "GBS-8200" adapter board I bought from a random Ali Express seller would help me get a #Commmodore 128 80-column output, but no luck so far.
Input is from a random C128-to-VGA adapter (no sync concerter), but all I get is a "No Signal" message and no response from any of the buttons.
Too many steps in the chain to know what is not working...

1. A green circuit board with a lot of connectors, with a blue VGA cable in either end and a black power cable plugged in.
