LM1881 'Video Sync Separator' seems to be a very useful ic there if I really
need it.
After thinking a bit more about the mitsubishi monitor

and rereading the Marco Orlandi's document I probably need to change the
level of the sync signal. He cuts a resistor, I probably need to do that.
As is I have no real documentation for the RGB card, couldn't find anything
on the net either. There is the little dipswitch with two switches and a
jumper. I notice that the dispswitches are differently set than Marco
Orlandi have them. The jumper is open/empty. Does anyone know what these do?
