Hi,
I've just dropped my CRT monitor while moving house. I powered it up to see if it still worked. It made a loud electrical buzzing sound and sparked inside at the back.
Before I dumped it in the bin I thought I'd have a peek inside to see if I thought it was repairable. The clear glass at the very back of the CRT had shattered, I think around the electron gun/heater - so I guess it ain't repairable!
Since then I've read bits about lead-lined glass and x-rays, so I'm worried.....
Could I have been exposed to anything when the glass shattered inside the set or when I powered the thing on with the glass shattered?
Thanks.
