Well I received a CTX 2412P monitor RGB DB9 connector today. I rolled the dice on to see if it was EGA or not. The model number with the p at the end
had me thinking it was EGA as to indicate it could display 21.8 non interlaced. Going to take the bottom cover off of it later to check the rgb connections
to see if it wired as RGBi. On the inside is a sticker that says EGA 03-c211as. Good sign. Big problem though was the lack of the power supply. I did all kind of research
on the picture tube which lead to serendipity of how I came up with needing a 115vdc power supply. There are two two wire connectors; one is 120 VAC the other is the output.
The picture is a Toshiba E2971B22-TC30DTHT. The AMIGA 1080 monitor uses a toshiba picture tube as well but a E2971B22GTHT. The schematic of the monitor shows
a regulated power supply with an out of 115V . An ATARI Matsushta RGB monitor from 1980 with RGB inputs as well has a schematic of an 115V output power supply
as the monitor is 14" . My problem is I have used every type of wording to locate a simple 115v crt power supply but have had no luck what so ever. Any body have any sugestions?
Time to go to Goodwill and see what is available is where I am at now.

BTW, I can't find any information on early 1988 era CTX 2412P monitors. There is a CTX 2411 on Ebay and cant find any information either.
It looks similar so wondering if the power board is the same as well?

Ok, the power supply was a bit more complicated. I instead got another monitor of the same manufacture and product/date code. CTX 2411 monitor. The power supply bracket
has the same exact number of 03-c211AS sans the (ega) moniker. There is a db-9 bracket attached where the wire passes through. I made out that where the monitor cable connects
to the mother board on the CTX 2411 there is a wire missing where it attaches. T.o the board where the EGS designates bracket for the power supply monitor cable has wires on the whole connector.
I am going to make the attempt to connect the new power supply after testing it; fuse is still good; to the Ega monitor later. The bonus is the picture tubes are one in the same . I got my money back
from the seller from the first monitor. I have an ATI VGA Wonder with an EGA connector for the monitor as well. Curious as to how it handles Flight Sim 4.
