Interesting. None of the LCD TVs that we have in our house will sync to any
scan rates less than the 31kHz standard VGA.

Why don't you use a LCD?
You can use 15-khz-aware LCDs... Samsungs 510N, 710N, 910N, 910T and
LGs M1521A, M1721A, M1921A are all useable in 15Khz machines. I have a
M1721A in my desk, which I use on MSX, Amiga and Sinclair computers...it
even runs 50Hz machines!
And, of course, you can use a upscaler. There are lots of them for
cheap in Ebay.

It would be nice to figure out a good common TV set that could be adapted
to Analog RGB or CGA.

Any old CRT TV is generally a decent monitor for the IIe and similar.
