I've got a chinese converter(from ebay, recommended by a few here) that
will take 15khz RGB video with composite sync and spit out VGA at ~32khz
so a regular monitor can be used to display the signal.
http://cgi.ebay.com/RGBS-CGA-EGA-YUV-VGA-converter-1-output-arcade-game-/25…
The seller claims (and spec sheet does indeed look this way) that the
RGBHV input must be 30khz+, but the RGBS input supports down to 14.5khz.
I'm attempting to use this with my amiga, which sends out separate H and
V SYNC signals but at 15.7khz.
I found this schematic

The simple VGA to RGB+CSYNC adapter TTL (which appears the same as the
"Separate Sync to Composite Sync Adapter")
I intend to build this, and see if this does the trick for me.
This sound like a reasonable plan?
Anyone happen to have a few 74HCT86's lying around? I can order them
online but because they are under $0.50 a piece, and I'll likely have to
pay a minimum order size fee plus S&H. Seems a waste for a dollar's
worth of items.
