Before you bid, I can find out some detailed information on this device and possiby get you a user manual in electronic form.  My employer absorbed Inline some time ago.

From the information I found at work, bubba's statement may be correct.  I didn't find a manual, electronic or otherwise, but I did find an IN1424 in the retired equipment pile.  I'm pretty sure I can locate a 15Khz RGBHV source somewhere at work so I'll give it a spin today and let you know my findings.

Incidently: Despite the seller's statement of "light use," those rack ears look beat up.  Also, the Inline 1404 bubba mentioned is still a current model.  Visit www.extron.com for more info about it.

I tested the IN1424 for scan doubling on input 4 (RGB). The signal chain:

Extron VTG300 -> IN1424 Input 4 -> Dell Monitor

The VTG300 was set for NTSC and the HD15 connector was used to output the signal to the IN1424.  The IN1424's output was NTSC.  The input signal was not scan doubled.

The IN1424 will not work for the intended application.
