Fred and all, Tnx for your input. I have purchased a foreign made manual 2 position SVGA switch online. Will give it a try first.
The KVM switches look nice, especially with software that allows assigning hot keys to do the switching. I did not find a KVM type for monitors only. So I will go with the cheaper manual switch for now. 73, Ray, N6VR Near Prescott, AZ ----- Original Message ----- From: "Fred Cady" <[email protected]> To: "Ray Benny" <[email protected]>, [email protected] Sent: Friday, July 3, 2015 8:32:33 AM Subject: RE: [Elecraft] Monitor switching between P3 SVGA output and second output from main computer I use a video 2x2 switcher, It has two input, two outputs and you can switch any source to any output.
