Make sure the retrace frequency is as high as allowed by the monitor. Also,
make sure the monitor is not interlacing the video. Interlacing can cause a
flicker. These two are the main cause of the eye strain as well as not
looking around to give your eyes a variety of distances to focus on. As far
as the static on the cordless, the higher resolution usually has a higher
frequency that could be a harmonic of the cordless. The other option may
have to do with the routing of the phone cord. Those are the places I would
look first.
