Hehe. Yeah, I cleaned it. This game was really filthy. But yes, I did clean the tube and both sides of the glass. And it's still fuzzy when looking at the tube directly, no tinted glass. I'm positive it's the tube. I've worked with monitors and televisions long enough to know a worn tube when I see one. The "fuzzy vector" problem is most pronounced on the green. Blue is weaker than green, and even with the cutoff and drive controls adjusted for best picture (using the test screen with the intensity test), the "dim blue" is almost invisible. If I crank stuff up any further I start to get a dot in the center of that color, then retrace lines. -Ian --------------------------------------------------------------------------- ** Unsubscribe, subscribe, or view the archives at http://www.vectorlist.org ** Please direct other questions, comments, or problems to chris@westnet.com --------------------------------------------------------------------------- ** Unsubscribe, subscribe, or view the archives at http://www.vectorlist.org ** Please direct other questions, comments, or problems to chris@westnet.comReceived on Sun Jul 18 09:12:18 2010
