Herb,
These are very good questions that deserve answers. I'll take some time this weekend to experiment and see what's up. I have a Sony-for-Sun monitor; I *might* have a CG6. At least the mode pins I can figure out. The monitor might be modern enough to show me frequencies on its OSD.
Aside from VCF exhibits I find myself less and less inclined to lug around the original-equipment CRTs for these things, so it's relevant to my interests too. ;)

I have two monitors of this class that's about all I have the space for and the systems can use these share it. SGI, NeXt, Sun, DEC systems. I also have the adapters to go from one cable type to another. It's worth having at least one large CRT if you have the space but I have a nice modern Dell LCD display that can handle most of what I can throw at it including the old workstations' output signals. Many modern cheap LCD displays cannot. Bill
