Some of the newer ones that allow the higher "super VGA" resolutions sacrifice the now obsolete CGA resolution. The Amiga uses that very same 15.75MHz scan rate (although analog instead). Case in point is the above CDP-1304. It will only work with a flickerFixer (or equivalent) at 31.5MHZ on an Amiga. The CDP-1302 will scan down to 15.75MHz. -- Jimmy Liberato ...!amdahl!drivax!liberato
