Addendum-
This thread (http://www.vogons.org/viewtopic.php?f=46&t=44692) seems to
indicate the 2007FP CAN do 15hkz on the VGA / RGB input... so maybe you're
all good. Anyone here want to test?

Seems to indicate that the Rainbow is a 15khz sync signal, more akin to
normal interlaced video- which I called out in my other post as being the
one type of signal that doesn't always work for these displays.
You may find success using a GBS-8220 scan-doubler, (ebay, c. $28
USD), perhaps with a sync-strainer circuit to feed the SoG signal to the
Scan Doubler as composite sync, if it doesn't work directly with the 2007FP.
Curious to hear what you figure out.

is
the
Dell
2007FP-
There was a panel lottery, some are TN, some IPS. Both are solid.
They are 4:3, 1600x1200 native.
They have DVI, VGA, Composite and S-Video inputs, and very stellar
scalers.
In fact there was one available for ukp35 so it's now mine. I these
monitors from a few years ago at a customer that specialised in
video for
aeroplanes, I used one not quite daily but
remember being irked at
the
time
that it was several button presses needed to get from VGA to DVI
input,
hahaha.
He had another one at that price (the last one apparently), so I have
bagged
that one. I tried my Viewsonic, which does SoG, on my Rainbow at the
weekend,
but that didn't work, perhaps this will. Even if it doesn't it will still
be a
good second monitor for my everyday PC.
