Question Zenith Avante Issue

Okay, I don't know exactly how to describe this current problem. I'm sure I can fix it once I know where to look. I believe it to be somewhere in the horizontal circuits.

Most time now, when I turn on the set, there is instability in the image. It's like parts of the image are being pulled inward ever so slightly and then back out. I heard someone say something about horizontal pulling, but I couldn't find anything about it. Sometimes it does it on first use, but most time it starts after about 30 or more minutes of use.

I've tried to capture it a few times, but each time it stopped. Then started up again after I put the camera away. It's like it knows.

I'm certain it could be as simple as reseating something as a good smack on the side can make the image move.

Also, where would one look for fluctuations in contrast? Not too often, but often enough, I'm watching something and the entire screen will get darker and them go back. Could do it just once, or do it multiple times.

Overall, it's a great set. Just want to track down the last two issues.

Thanks
