    If your +2A is from the UK then it will have X200 crystal at 6MHz for PAL I. PAL G is more common in europe which needs 5.5MHz. Actually its not a crystal but does the same job.

    all those other machines use a different modulator I think - I know the C64 definitely does.

    all spectrums use an Aztec UM1233, which are known to be problematical on a lot of TVs, especially modern ones with OSD tuning.
