I decided to get a tvga8900 for mine, as fiddling with 15khz ttl is
just too flaky and problemmatic.  Having a real cga/ega monitor would
be cool if I could justify the cost and the space, but a native fix is
an isa vga card so that's my solution.  I'm refurbing a 5170 for use as
an imaging tool, ISA tester, etc.
Best,
Jeff
