And storing to WSYNC essentially turns off the processor until the next scanline comes on. The trick for getting the emulator to work is doing exactly the right thing when the STA WSYNC comes very close to the end of the scanline, and I have tested all of these cases very carefully. If you are really interested let me know and I will send you the programs I used to test it with.
