Anyway, who has a working 13" monitor? I have decided to put my Mr. Do!s Wild Ride PCB into my Universal cocktail, which doesn't have a monitor anymore.
Would love to trade some stuff for it.
Boards.
Time Pilot '84 (tested, working)
Super Basketball (never actually plugged it in, was told it was working).
Darwin 4078 (untested, assume dead, everything else in the cab was).
Arch Rivals with harness, marquee, and unpopulated control panel (tested. working by noice).
Road Fighter (NOS PCB, tested working, still in Konami box).
Also have some new top fire sticks, and MANY other odds and ends.

Note, I was not offering ALL of that for a 13" monitor (they aren't worth THAT much), that was just a list of what I have available.

check on ebay... they can go for a buck or two... and then shipping.
but you are probably going to pay shipping here anyway.
I wanted a 9" one for a countertop... but I have too many projects... not enought time.

Never seen a 13" arcade monitor go for a buck or two, usually like $25-$100 ($100 for new ones, or rebuilt ones done by the good shops).
I guess I should have specified that I wanted a 13" arcade monitor, as 14" computer displays (same size as a 13" arcade monitor) are VERY easy to come by.
I just figured SOMEONE here may have one, since those 13" cocktails and minis so easily take a 14" PC monitor (done several of those in the past).

You've probably already checked this(becuase you seem extremely knowledgable with pc's/arcade stuff), but some older PC monitors will work with arcade pcb's. I know you have a lot of older pc monitors, so this might be an option to check. Check out this thread (http://www.arcadecontrols.org/yabbse/index.php?board=4;action=display;threadid=13503;start=msg105898#msg105898) for details about Peale's monitor that would work and this page (http://216.239.37.104/search?q=cache:SQQXK6nmYPEJ:www.ionpool.net/arcade/tech/monitor_test_bench.pdf+princeton+graphics+1400&hl=en&ie=UTF-8) has some information too.
Just tryin' to help
;)

Hard as heck to find those. I had one that was supposed to work, and it did, except for the fact that the video was like a photonegative and the horizontal overlapped from one side to the other and would not adjust out.

Yeah, I have one that does the same thing. I didn't realize that they were hard to find.
Another option, try looking for a commodore 1084 monitor, they do RGB and should work with arcade pcb's(like the one in this (http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=11194&item=4135471288&rd=1&ssPageName=WDVW) auction).
I know I'm not really helping, sorry, just trying to give you more options...

One of my local buddies just came through for me on another message board, so it looks like I will get one from him.
