I have both a Retina ZII and ZIII and have been easily able to get them to
work at any frequency I care to define (including 50KHZ).

What version of RetinaEmu are you running? The latest I know of is 2.3.

The later Retina software comes with a utility called "Define
Monitor" which allows you to define precisely your own screemodes,
with it you can set up things like horizontal and vertical frequencies,
position etc... It's very useful. You will need the latest version of the
user's manual for the complete instructions though. 

You can get software updates from a place here in Melbourne called "TV
Graphics"
