I use a NEC Accusync 71v. It's a VGA LCD monitor with support for the 15khz 
signal from old computers. I just needed to build my own adapter to match the 
pinout from the CoCo3. I got the monitor on Ebay five years ago back when 
someone had a new-old-stock supply of them, but they're probably pretty hard to

Have you heard of the Switch-a-roo SCART cable? The guy that makes them has 
been selling them for years on his cocoman.biz site. Google it. It lets you 
connect the CoCo3 to any SCART-to-HDMI adapter, which you then connect to any 
HDMI TV. This is probably the optimal solution anyway since it allows you to 
switch back and forth between composite and RGB modes, a nice feature to have 
if you run both CoCo1/2 & CoCo3 software. No soldering since it's pre-made.
