CTX PL-9 19" CRT Monitor Fuzzy Fonts
 

The above has 1U8-03700474 MFD SEP 2000 on the tag. It has been an excellent
monitor for about 5 or so years now. Recently, however, it has
intermittently begun to "fuzz" the fonts. I have degaussed it a few times to
no avail. When the monitor is cold, everything looks good, but after about
30 mins or so, the fonts turn fuzzy. I normally run my ATI 9700 Pro @
1024X768 32-bit colour, 85Hz refresh. Is this worth repairing? If so, where
would one begin to look? Thanks!

CTX PL-9 19" CRT Monitor Fuzzy Fonts
 

From experience with these monitors, the fault is caused by either the HV
module is failing, or the CRT is going weak.

I would be out shopping for a new monitor at this time.
