I just ordered, from CoCoPro (Dave Meyers), a 1CM135 Magnovox monitor.

Frank Hogg suggested this monitor instead of another CM8 for my system (my CM8
is dying...slowly but surely).

The problem is getting a monitor that will horizontally scan at 15.75
KHz....most Multi-Sync monitors scan at about 30.00.  So, Frank suggested the
1CM135 as the best replacement, that will work correctly with the VSC chip.

Finding a Magnovox monitor was another story - I ca,lled a bunch of places,
finding none available anywhere for immediate shipment.

The best I could find was coCoPro, where he promised me the monitor would
arrive around 1/1; so I ordered it from him.

The cost of the Mag. is between $250-$300, depending on who you order from.

I understand that this new monitor has a dot pitch of .42mm, as compared to the
CM8 at .52mm, so the screen should look a lot better with the new monitor.
