Flat screens compatible with Affirmative Yestation?

As many of you probably know, we have a used Affirmative Yestation (no model number visible on the unit, but it's a Twinax model) in our computer cage, as a shared console for our AS/400s.
Some time ago, I tried both my own LCD monitor (an off-brand cheapie from Best Buy) and one of the Dell LCD monitors we now have on our PCs in the cage. Most of them worked reasonably well with all of the WinDoze and Linux boxes, but when I punched up the Yestation on the KVM switchbox, they either didn't work at all, or produced an unreadable display.
The Boss brought in another Dell LCD this morning, to see if it would work in the cage, replacing a bulky CRT. It, too, worked fine for the WinDoze and Linux boxes, but when I punched up the Yestation, all it displayed was a message to the effect that it couldn't handle the signal.
I recall some recent discussion on the List about LCDs compatible with terminals; does anybody know of a currently available unit that would accept the signal from the Yestation?
