The teletext chip is an SAA5246AGP/E.

The TEMIC datasheet says that the tuner always accepts c2, and accepts
c0, c4, and c6 according to the voltage on pin 11 of the tuner.  I have
measured the voltage on this pin, and it is not in any of the ranges
for those addresses, so I guess it is correctly not responding to any
of them.

I have adjusted the AGC and burst delay registers for PAL, and the
horizontal and vertical active and delay registers for PAL's image size,
and I now get a colour picture on at least some channels.  However
alternate lines of the picture are missing (black, so the picture looks
dim).  Any idea what I might have missed?  Of course I've also had
to hack fxtv slightly too.
