Hey guys ,
Speaking of Barkhausen , does anyone remember the little magnet gadget that was supposed to mitigate it ? Not the "Damper Rings" like the Audiophile guys now use , but more like something looking kinda like an ION trap , just designed to fit around a Horizontal output tube . In all my years of TV repair "back in the day" I recall seeing 3 or 4 of them , but never experimented with any of them for fear of having my fingers THAT close to a running Horizontal Output . I presume one was to rotate this about the tube till the raggedy picture edge went away , and then tighten it into position with a little thumbscrew .
