   I have the Vortex Monitor Master for my Amiga that has a Toaster in it.
If the Monitor Master is connected while the Toaster is running it causes
a lot of problems with the 15kHz RGB video that (not composite from
Toaster) comes out of the Amiga. There is no problem so long as the
Toaster is not started. It seems to create a dubble horizontal image
flickering back and forth. The monitor also rolls the image vertically.
When I look at the A2000 mono video output it seems to be just fine. So it
seems the problem happens after the RGB video leaves the Amiga and goes
through the MM. I thougt that maybe it might have to do with impedance
mismatch, but I've used the MM with two different monitors. One I know
works with the Toaster. I've also checked the connections and resistances
to and from the MM to the monitor. Nothing seems out of place, or
significant. Anyone have this problem and find a way to fix it? Is that
just life? Thanks.
