About three years ago, I bought a cheap little 720P 15" Insignia (Best Buy
brand) TV for not much over a hundred bucks. They've dropped considerably
in price since then. Along with being an HD TV, it has HDMI, VGA, Component
(RGB), S-Video and composite (yellow) switchable inputs. It even has a
TOS-LINK connector, but I haven't tried that yet. An outboard VGA switch
selects P3 or shack computer. If there's any RFI from it, I've never
noticed.
I'd spring for a TV rather than just a monitor. They typically have more
inputs and just a good a display. Plus, they're great for keeping track of
your favorite team while playing radio. A quick punch on the remote and
you're back the spectrum display.

I bought an ASUS VS Series VS197D-P Black 18.5" 5ms LED Backlight
Widescreen
LCD Monitor, and told the store I was going to bring it back if it was an
RFI offender.
I unboxed it, attached it to P3, powered up the K-Line and listened to the
background noise levels up and down each band with the VS197D-P on and
with
it off. I found that this monitor generated no appreciable noise on any
of
the Amateur Bands. It's been sitting on my operating desk ever since and
has been a great visual extension to my P3.
