Monitor Options
« on: June 30, 2006, 11:43:26 PM »
Hullo.  The ancient Electrohome multisync monitor I used with my A1200 seems to be on the fritz (it can display hi-res RGB 31Khz screens just fine, but NTSC 15Khz screens are shunted off two inches or so to the right of the edge of the screen).

I was wondering if anybody here may know if there are any multisync monitors currently in production, or barring that, know of any other multisyncs that were produced during the Amiga era other than the 1942 and 1960 (both _were_ multisyncs, right?) that I can keep an eye out for.


Thanks again,
Chris

Thanks for the monitor suggestions, everyone.  Now I've got a better idea of what to scout around for on the used market.  

FYI, I also found a page geared at Atari ST users that lists a bunch of multisync displays as well.  It's a commerical site, but they give a lot of info on display frequencies:

At the momen Software Hut are selling external Flicker Fixers works with all Amiga's so you can plug any vga monitor in but you better act fast as they don't have many left.Merv


Yeah, I saw those, too.  However, the Amiga Hardware Database description makes these sound less than perfect, in terms of picture quality, and frankly, I'm still saving the cash for a new accelerator.  It's going to be a while before I'll be able to get a flicker fixer, unfortunately.
