Simple video fader

This is a very basic circuit for fading video signal shown in Eletor Electronics magazine. You can use this between two video equipments. The circuit is so simple that the impedance matching and some other things are not exactly correct, so might not always wor reliably. Anyway it is so simple and easy to build that it does not hurt much to try.
