Yes, the US QL can be used with a CGA monitor; BUT, one line's signal needs to be inverted -- others who are more technically inclined can hopefully elaborate. An older, NEC EGA-multisync monitor _can_ be hooked up to a QL, but my recollection is that the equivalent image is less than full

Hello again, here's stupid question no. 2. Since I don't remember its specs but I do remember that most multisync monitors cannot go low enough for the QL to output on them... Is the QL compatible with CGA monitors (or was that only TTL and not Analog?) If it is I just found a nice adapter from
