I have a NEC MultiSync (PC-1401P3A) running at 24MHz video clock (~42 ns).
I am operating the monitor in 8-color TTL mode, 640 x 480.  The video
comes from a registered P.A.L. and the rise time (at my end of the cable)
is about 5-6 ns to 2.4 volts.  I think it's a great monitor and I especially
like it for its forgiveness regarding sync timing.  HOWEVER,

I can see a substantial difference in intensity between vertical lines
and horizontal lines (that is, pixels which are isolated and pixels which
come in bursts).  I have always been taught that this is a symptom of
poor rise time in the video amplifier(s).

The spec claims "Video Band Width 30 MHz".

Has anyone else seen any symptom of limited video bandwidth in the MultiSync?
