Re: Yellow and blue line next to TV picture

Why a bad tube ? Sounds like a convergence error on blue. Only a bad tube,
if there are no yoke adjustments, and you count the yoke as being part of
the tube. Any slot mask tube is inherently self converging, but there may be
a couple of adjustments on the yoke itself for fine tweaking. I would not
want to start playing with them without knowing exactly what they were
supposed to do though. I agree that you are best to contact B&O and tell
them that you are very unhappy with the product. For more info on what you
are seeing and what level of misconvergence you should expect, take a look
at

Thanks Arfa,

I see that I have a small convergence error on the outside of the
picture. The picture though looks great and has no errors at all. The
teletext looks very crisp and no convergence errors there. Maybe I'm
too picky but I know about the problems of the too early dying W76ESF
tubes. Does anybody has some figures on that, e.g., what percentage
dies and what is the average lifetime?

Thanks again
