Ghosting occurs when the signal bounces up and down the connection cable
which can happen (according to Electrical Engineer advisor [scratching
his memory]) when impedences aren't matched (Scart has a 75 ohm
input/output impedence on RGB signals); inserting a resistor can change
the impedence (although measured in ohms it isn't resistance) of the
cable/connection - as I said, having not tried it I can't really
comment, only pass on info I've been given.  [Impedences is something I
understood years ago and have now forgotten 99.78% of.]

UHF alone or monitor alone works(ed) in both cases.  UHF + old monitor
worked.  UHF + current monitor crashes QL!  Weird!

One thing I did do was convert my old Phillips TX B/W TV into a
[composite] Monitor by bypassing the demodulator and the improvement in
quality was quite dramatic.
