Betson Imperial Multisync problem

Seems like we are at the same crossroads in our cabs and we live in the same area. I'm trying to make a monitor decision as well. Thanks for this post, and if you can post it or contact me with any decision you make, I'm greatly interested in what way you go.
Nutshell:
*Well Garner D9200 - quality/reliability questionable

Funny, but it contradicts what most monitor distributors have to say about wellsgardners monitors. I've spoken with several large distributors and wellsgardners monitors are always highly regarded, particularly for reliability and service. A couple weren't familiar with kortek, but the few that were said they made affordable/inexpensive monitors, with no comments either good or bad, as to their service or quality.
I tried with much effort to secure a 19" kortek monitor, however, no one from the company outside of america even replied to my inquiries. I tried both the german and korean distribution centers but to no avail. I did eventually get a hold of an american rep who pointed me to a modest operation on the west coast that wasn't of much use in the end. They didn't ship international, didn't know anyone who did, and didn't even cary the multisync line, much less the 19" version.
I'm somewhat sceptical of what the kortek multisync can do as well. No one's posted any specs on what frequencies these monitors actually support, or whether they have digital control like the d9200 (stores multiple cetering modes).

Kevin, where is the rotation adjustment on the D9200? Is it in the onscreen menu? Is this a normal adjustment on all monitors? I'm wondering as I can't seem to find one on my original 29" or hanatrex Polo 25". Is this something only digitial monitors support (besides the Betson of course)?

The Kortek supports 15Khz up to about 38Khz, and has digital controls/memory settings just like the D9200 (actually, it has more adjustment options than the D9200, with one glaring exception: rotation).
Read through the forums here for more information about the WG-D9200's woes...

It actually supports the whole listed range, even goofy frequencies like 17kHz to 22kHz? How many centering modes does it store and at what frequencies? This is what i've been dying to find out, but no one seems to know.
KevSteele:
I believe it does the whole range - I ran a test floppy (do a search on the boards here, can't remember off hand who set it up for me to test) and it handled nearly everything thrown at it.
According to the specs on the Kortek site, I recall it has a digital memory for up to six non-standard resolution settings. I'm assuming that means that the officially supported resolutions (640x480, etc.) also have their own memory settings.
I can tell you this - I've yet to have any resolution "forget" its centering/resize adjustments.
