[Wear-Hard] Interesting prices for some of the newer "glasses" style HMD's

So, if I understand you:

Comercial NTSC Source -> dirves TV
Comercial NTSC Source -> dirves ARGO

Home built NTSC Source (pong) -> drives TV
Home built NTSC Source (pong) -> does not drive ARGO

So, perhaps there is some redundency between the Comercial NTSC source
and the TV that is missing on your PONG source and your ARGO.

I am not an NTSC person, but the first thing that comes to mind is
Ground

Alternatively, NTSC a 2 connector (gnd and signal) plug, right?  Could
it be reversed on your device?  Perhaps the TV can deal with that and
the ARGO can't?

What about signal strength?  Perhaps the TV can deal with a weak
signal that the ARGO cannot.  (or an inverted one - reversed )

Can you pass your pong device INTO a vcr or something like that that
and then to the ARGO?  Does it work then? 
 
Does this suggest anything to you?

Just brainstorming (during a cool lecture on Flapjax by Shriram Krihnamurthi).

Hope this helps,

-Greg
