I use a CV643D in an A3000. The outputs of the CV643D and the A3000 internal flicker fixer both feed an ATEN VS291 external monitor switch that I got for about $30 (new) on EBay. Works very well. You should be able to use a Commodore A2320 Display Enhancer or Microway Flicker Fixer much the same way with the CV643D in other big box Amigas.

Does the Aten VS291 havve it's own external power supply?


Yes, it is an electronic switch.

I have also been looking at the VS201 which seems to be an automatic switcher.


I originally intended to buy this one because I wanted automatic switching too but I ended up selecting the VS291 on price. It was less than half the price of the VS201 and I thought I would give it a try. So far I am happy with it.

The VS201 also has a priority switch to select the primary input so that may help when the Amiga opens both a native and a RTG screen at the same time. The way I read their manual, the VS-201 would automatically select the primary input if a signal is present there.
