That's kind of what I was aiming for.

Unfortunately, I don't have a center dot setup, I only have crosshatch, white screen, gray scale, and color bars (using a test pattern DVD transmitting via agile modulator). One thing I should note, the purity rings on the tube have a light coat of rust on them, and to be frank, I'm not exactly sure *how* they work to begin with.

I tried rotating them on the crosshatch screen to try to affect something, but if I'm understanding this correctly, I need to do that on a white screen first.
