Has anyone on the list emulated one of the old vector

Nope; it would be non-trivial with an LCD. With a CRT you might have
some hope, but as was already noted you'd have to change the HV
circuits in the tube.
It seems like some of the DEC system enthusiasts would
be thinking about
this since the original Vector devices are so rare.
I think it would be easier to condition the signals for an X-Y display
(i.e. oscilloscope style display).
That's what the HP 1351A vector generator wants anyway.
