Ideally a clock of 54Mhz is required for  enhanced definition to
work, which it was actually set to but while testing I noticed
out-of-range signal. The out-of-range signal is often caused
when the field rate is above the rate that the television will handle.
When this is the case the TV or monitor displays "Out-Of-Range Signal".

Reducing the clock fixed it. now the clock is set to 27Mhz.
