I'm using cast-off computer monitors -- someone upgrades their desktop, 
the old monitor is surplus. I had a few of these myself, and a post to 
the email reflectors of a couple of local clubs yielded several more. 
All free.

Be VERY cautious about the current crop of monitors with touch controls 
-- one of the monitors a local ham gave me was a new Samsung BX2250 LCD 
that he could not use because it goes nuts when he transmits. Even 
running from my 12V battery, it's also a noise generator.
