PS, I see you did CRT rejuvenation.

I have done close to a hundred BW and color I think, I used a simple 1 phase rectifier diode and electrolytic on the 240 V, and a 15 W or so (fridge type) lightbulb in series with that HV, at normal heater current. Connect until light bulb burns steady, for each gun in a color CRT I have never done it to a scope CRT. Never had a one that did not want to rejuvenate.

You don't need anything like that level of filtering. Since the aliasing only occurs with the presence of the real signal being -40 db down is enough to make it inaudible in almost any setting and most of the time you could get away with just -20 db.

Yes, since posting that page I've learned that everyone has their own recipe for zapping CRTs, and most of them work pretty well. It seems that LCD retrofits are going to be the best option, though, at least after the prices come down a bit more. My old faithful 8566B has an LCD now...

I had to check to make sure this post was in sci.electronics.design! Someone discussed a topic and was courteous, friendly and agreeable! It must have been a glitch in my newsreader and this message is from some other group!!!

Hello,

but 150 dB will damage the hering in a very short time. More than 134 dB will cause pain and 120 dB are enough for damages in a short time.

Bye

Is that another red hering joke?

maybe his herring has been impaired ?
