It should hook up to any monitor that you might find in north america, BW
preferrably. The only weirdness is the PL59 connector, so you may have to
build a PL59 to BNC or what-have-you cable to connect it to your
monitor. I picked up a 9" B&W security monitor for $10 at a swap meet and
it has worked just fine.

You may want to seek out the section on repairing the keyboard.
