Perhaps someone can help. I need to explain to my brother, who lives
in another state how to manually degauss his TV. I've sent him an old
coil I've had around here forever with instructions on how to use it.
I've also found some good articles on this on line however a pictorial
view of the procedure would be of great benefit to a non technical
person such as he. Does anyone know of any articles that might include
a picture or two of the process? Thanks, Lenny. |

Geez, you turn on the TV and the coil, wave the coil over the TV like
a magic wand while marveling over the neat colors, move the coil away
and then turn it off. If he can't handle that, please tell me he
doesn't drive a car because THAT's a whole lot harder.

He drove the car through the front wall of the house and knocked the TV
over - that's why it needs degaussing. |

Its entertaining but it really doesn't show walking up to the crt with
the coil perpendicular to the screen then during backing off repeating
this step. I guess that I can explain this over the phone. Thanks,
Lenny.
Unless your brother has small children that like to play with magnets
against the front of the TV, degauss problems are relatively rare unless the
degauss posistor fails. The thermistor pellet often shatters and will
sometimes go intermittent short before finally going completely open
circuit - this usually causes severe purity errors but they can just fail
open circuit with more subtle colour errors. |
