Interference resolved!!
Kept EMI filter in because why not. I didn’t ground every device but this time I tied the grounds with a very short but large gauge wire. Admittedly I was using a thin long wire as a quick test before.
The idea to tie the grounds came from the Midway KI manuals. The...
The video wires I snipped off the original harness. All other wires I ran new. Maybe the video wires needs shielding?

I have a Blue Alpha, and a Green Zero 2.
Just need a working A board that supports them.
I’m ok with a beat up one and/or one that needs infinitikey; I’m putting it in a new case + will replace the battery anyhow.

Quick story: Bought them from a reseller in Summer of 2021. Was advised that the monitors shut down and needs repairs, but grabbed them anyway. They were in storage until today; I brought them home and then changed my mind. I don't want to go forward with the repairs nor do I want to own them...

My skills got better since then but time hasn’t permitted me to improve that project.
