So you know all about CRT devices but don't know about the CRT's g2 grid?
The warnings are for your saftey and the potential saftey of others
reading these threads.

No, I had never heard that term before. I do know about CRTs (not *all*
about them, obviously), but I'm not in the TV repair business and don't
know all the jargon. So sue me.

By the way, I did look up "G2" on Google, and discovered that it seems
to indicate a grid (2nd grid, I'm assuming) on vacuum tubes in general,
not just CRTs; found references to 6550s and such.

But I do know all about high voltages, and know enough to be damn
careful with the innards of any TV set or monitor. The two aren't
mutually exclusive, you know, so you can lay off your warnings, as
well-intentioned as they may be.

this thread is starting to sound like deja vu-....
