[comp.sys.ibm.pc] mono monitor

I just purchased a compatable and am trying out 2 different graphic
cards (Im trying to use my old mono monitor) and have had no success
with the adapter which takes the graphic card output and converts it to
an RCA type connector. I was wondering if anyone out there has a cheap
solution to my problem. The monitor I have is an old Panasonic
monochrome monitor which plugs into female RCA type connectors (you know
the connectors which are used in most stereo systems). The 2 graphics
cards Im trying out are a CGA and a mono adapted CGA. By the way the
system Im trying out is an XT...is there any good reason to shell out
the extra bucks for the AT (286 or even 386).

Thanks in advance
