Well I'm now using the new monitor and to say I'm impressed is a gross
understatment. I wish the Scandoubler/Flicker fixer had at least a few
instructions and even explained what the small switch at the end that the
monitor goes into is for, any idea?

I'm having great fun with this atm. PAL and NTSC modes work fine, but I'm not
able to display doublePAL or DoubleNTSC as these are being doubled and my
monitor displays a nice out-of-range message. IIRC I'd need to just use one
of the VGA adaptor plugs instead of the Scandoubler to use these.

You're not wrong there it's fantastic.
