may have some useful information. Do you have any
modern PC monitor that can do SOG? - my Iiyama does,
for example. If you hook one of these up, rather than
one of the DEC fixed-frequency monitors, you should be
able to tell whether the rest of the system is OK.

Also bear in mind that the VS3100-76 takes quite a
while before doing *anything* on the monitor - I
forget exactly how long, but it could be as long as
3 minutes. I assume you know this, but just in case ...
