The GBS-8200/8220 does support CGA and I have successfully used it
with various DEC terminals (VT240, Rainbow) by front-ending it with
a modern sync seperator (TI LMH1980) so that, in the case of VT240,
which does sync-on-green, I ended up with RGB and H and V sync going
into the GBS-8200. Looks great on a 15" VGA LCD...
