Welcome the the Cathode Ray Tube Fan Club!
This site is for all people who like CRTs. It is mostly aimed at CRT televisions and monitors, but could be CRTs for any purpose.

This site is currently being constructed and is no where near finished. If you want to join, send me an email and I will add your name to the list of CRT lovers, as well as any details of CRT monitors you have in use (if any). I'll start.

Update! I managed to fix the convergence problem using Sony's WinDAS software. This was achieved by connecting the monitors TTL serial connection to the computer's RS232 port by means of a MAX232 level converter. I'm still not sure about the popping mentioned belwo (it hasn't done this for ages now), but after switching it on, it does take quite a while for a picture to display (just under a minute). It never took this long when I got it.
