Yay, its showing a picture now. There is something wrong with my colour bar generator,it just shows a blackscreen.
I should have bought that nice Philips one when I saw it for sale.
The photo is taken from an old VHS tape I have - Mr Motivator actually.
However the screen is too dark, even withthe screen control turned up full.
I cleaned the case and tried to wipe the black mould spots off the front of the tube - I was very suprised to find it was inside the glass.
Either there is an implosion shield or the tube is so flat its let damp in ;-)
Something to look at tomorrow, I'm going to struggle now without a schematic.
A bonus is that last time I tried the VHS recorer it wasnt working, today I wound the tape on a bit and now its ok
.
Kind regards, David.
