If it's not a dirty switch (I have a 1902 with a dirty switch in front
that i have to jiggle to get a svid pic in), then you probably need
some resistors on the horizontal & vertical lines.

I had to do that to connect an Atari 1024 ST to a 108x monitor (I have
a 1902, 1080, & 1084).   Unfortunetly (for you) I have a Sony CPD-1302
that I have my IIgs connected to, and I didn't have to resist anything
on that.   I haven't tried to make a 108x cable for it yet, so I'm not
sure.
