Well, the little pink TV arrived back here safe and sound, so the story had a happy ending. I have to hand it to Andy for getting this one to work again. The picture is crisp and the colors are accurate.
The first picture is the "before," showing the squished vertical. The second shows the repaired TV.
My automatic-everything digital camera doesn't do a good job with this kind of photo (colors and contrast are kinda off), but you get the general idea. Maybe I will haul out my old Nikon film camera to take photos for an article on my website.
Thanks, Andy -- you win this week's Swami award!
