Jo Hi all,
Jo working on this Apex AT2702 it have this green spot up in the left
Jo coner. it look like it need degaussing or maybe setting too close to
Jo some type of magnet, well i degassed it and it went out but when turn
Jo off and turn it back on it reapears have anyone ever had this problem?
Jo thanks in advance.


It might be a problem with the vertical blanking. Perhaps a bad bypass
cap or zener bias diode in the vertical circuitry. It might be a piece
of dust in the green gun or maybe the mask. I think this type of
problem is called a "ghoul". Is it a fuzzy spot or does it have a sharp
outline or partly either on one side or the other?

A*s*i*m*o*v

.... Well I defragged my TV and went all the way back to basic cable!
