That's one way to do it, but I had trouble getting a stable picture using this method, although I'm sure with a little persiverance it could easily be done.
I ended up going with the route of hacking a vga box. Just follow the 31 kHz RGB pin (6) from the dc http://www.gamesx.com/avpinouts/dricas.htm and cut it in the vga box and the vga box will output 15 kHz RGB, perfect for your arcade monitor.

i've tried doing that but no luck. We track down pin 6 which is the 31khz. With that out of the way we hack in side the monitor.
their are 5 wire original from the back of the monitor, red, green and blue, black and gray wires.
