This is an important point! Even if you have a multisync that can scan down to the Amigas 15.75 kHz, some simply are not designed for proper interlace which leads to the awful problem you describe. They may work perfectly with the flickerFixer, however, at noninterlaced 31.5 kHz. This is an important consideration only for those buying a multisync now in anticipation of a flickerFixer or ECS in the future. One monitor that is particularly good at interlace is the Mitsubishi Diamondscan. It better be since it has a composite video (T.V.) input also. -- Jimmy Liberato ...!amdahl!drivax!liberato
