In my multiop contest station I plan on having one computer
run Geoclock and some propagation program to be determined.
These will probably run in separate windows (in OS/2) and I would
like to pipe the VGA signal around the room to a monitor at each
operating position.
I recall seeing an article a few years ago on a box to drive multiple
VGA monitors but after a thorough check of my library I can't find the
article--don't recall the magazine even. There are commercial
boxes available to do this job but they are expensive ($200) and I
would prefer to roll my own, probably by using a commercial VGA
switchbox and gutting the switch part and replacing it with the
video drivers. This gets me a nice box with all of the connectors
with a minimum of work. That way I can concentrate on the
electronics rather than the packaging.
Does anyone recall an article on this subject or have any information
(or even know of a reasonably priced commercial version)?
Thanks for any help and I will forward any info directly to anyone with
a similar interest--just let me know that you are interested as well.
