[CQ-Contest] SVGA Replacement Recommendations

[John Guida]

Howdy!

My Gateway Crystal Scan 1572FS SVGA display is about ready to bite 
the dust! It's been a pretty good monitor, but I have experienced RFI 
that I have never been able to totally eliminate. The interference 
points relative to frequencies are far enough apart to allow me to 
pretty easily avoid them during contests when I am calling CQ, but 
occasionally will be in the way of some weaker signal stations 
during S&P.

So...I'm soliciting advice on your experiences for what might be a 
relatively "clean" SVGA display I might consider.

Tnx in advance for everyone's help.

Although in some past threads on monitors for CONTESTING 
some have stated that 17" monitors are too big, if you are 
an aging male like myself, suffering from the effects of 
testosterone poisoning, (that may describe a number of us 
in the CONTESTING community), a 17" monitor may be a good 
deal. I just purchased a SONY 200SX that appears to be RFI 
free (at least in my installation). The monitor is mounted 
about 2" from the TS-850S and I have yet to detect any RFI. 
I should note that I do by nature separate my AC Power, RF 
Signal, and Misc Computer cables in their routing so I have 
taken some precautions in this area. Your mileage may vary.
