Hello,

Does anyone know why the colour map moves between $9400 and $9600 on the
Vic? Is there a reason it couldn't stay at a single location such as
$9400?

I've wondered about this for a while and there is probably an obvious
reason that I'm missing but I would love to know. My interest in this was
renewed recently when I was creating a video (links below) which shows
the colour map being used as a location to store data and now it seems
I really should find out.  I've posted about this on vcfed.org but
there's been no answer yet so am hoping someone here will know.
