Has anybody had any experience with extending the RGB output of an 
Amiga a signifigant distance?  I've got this terrific 27" Sony 
NTSC/PAL/SECAM monitor in my den that I'd love to be able to show off
some of the Amiga's capabilities on.  Trouble is it's about 25' away
from the "computer room", and neither the TV or the Amiga is eligible
for relocation... Are the levels on the RGB output such that they would
survive a 35-40' length of coax in there?  If not, could some sort of
buffer amplifier be used, and if so where might I find a description
(preferrably a schematic) of such a beast. Finally, what sort of
characteristics would the coax need to have ???
