I had one and really enjoyed it, at work, back in the late 1980s.

Which modern VGA modes will it do?

Modern VGA modes??? :)

A whopping 800x600 NI or 1024x768 interlaced. :)

I just hate throwing stuff away that works.

And very rare monitors to sync to composite down to NTSC. 15.7KHz
Google for pinout to make adapter.

That suggests it might be useful in the video industry. I wonder if a local
TV station would want it. Or a video production outfit.

Bingo! He should promote it to the arcade game repair community. It was
the universal monitor of the mid-1980s, so it should work well with older
games.

Good points. So, maybe I'll just stuff it in a corner of the attic
and hope it grows in value. :)

If you had a Repair Brief for it, I'm sure that would boost the value.
"As seen in the sci.electronics.repair FAQ, maybe even Radio Electronics,
the famous NEC 3D Monitor, that I wrote about finding at a garage sale
for $3 and fixing it with a couple of parts".

Actually, I just checked and it doesn't do NTSC. Darn.



Don't a lot of arcade monitors run in RGB at NTSC frequencies?

BTW, I have a stack of working Commodore 1702 monitors. If my church
ever gets their act together, I'll "Loan" them the composite NTSC
monitors for their effort to put their services on the local access
channel.

BTW, did you ever fix that piece of equipment that I sent you the six
pin plug for?

HeHeHe... I built the cable but have yet to fire it up. Not fixing the
equipment but setting it up. It's still in the queue of things to do
though. :)



You're getting to be as bad as me. I guess I'll have to take some
pictures to show why a lot of projects didn't get finished.
