[net.micro.6809] How can I interface an 80-col monitor to my CoCo 2?

I would like to use my Colour Computer as a semi-intelligent terminal,
but I can't use the screen as it is. Even using four pixels per
character I can only get 64 characters across the screen, and I would
*really* like to have 80. Is there anyone who knows of a way I could
interface a *real* monitor to the Colour Computer? I don't mind the
screen as it is for hacking on the Colour Computer, but when I log on
to my UNIX account I want 80 cols!

Also if anyone has heard of a terminal package that is designed for use
with a Colour Computer with some sort of 80-column enhancement, I
would very much appreciate hearing about it!

Please reply by mail, and I'll post a summary of responses to the net!
Thanx,
