^^^^
Surely this should be 15.8kHz, the same as for low res, after all they both
work on a standard TV set, which has 15.8KHz / 60Hz rates. (50Hz in UK)

a typo - should be in Hz

^^^^^^^^
Seems a restricted range for a true multi-sync, this range in more appropriate
for VGA only. Does this monitor work with CGA? (CGA uses the same frequencies
as low/medium res). The shop may be more knowledgable about the monitors
performance with PC graphics standards.

Are the above back to front...
i.e horizontal (line) sync range 15kHz to 36kHz
vertical (frame) sync range 45 Hz to 90 Hz
This is comparable to most multi-sync monitor specs, and should work
in all 3 Atari modes. Note the 45Hz spec allows the monitor to be used
in the UK (and Europe) with our 50Hz frame rate.
Seems like a very good price monitor, can you give details of the supplier
or manufacturer - I would be interested in locating a UK source.
