I have a few adapters that change an EGA connector into VGA. This I use 
for interfacing a Multisync monitor to a VGA video card. The 9 pin EGA is 
the same as the CGA and monochrome PHYSCIALLY. A second adapter converts 
9 pin mono to RCA video. Now if you connect the 15 
pin to 9 pin, and then a 9 pin to CV RCA jack you should have it. I've 
never tried this and Am not sure if the RCA jack input will work for your 
application.
