Wow, it's definitely magnetized. I found the TV and a compass, which deflects most strongly near the back as you approach the power transformer.
I got out my second set, which shows some magnetism, but not as strong and not in the same places. I don't have a degaussing coil (anybody have a spare for sale?). Perhaps I could try using a soldering gun, although my gun's not very big. Phil Nelson |

Even out of the cabinet' geomerty is imperfect over the face of the screen. I don't doubt that the cabinet can become magnetized. Between the transformer, speaker, and yoke magetism of the steel cabinet is inevitable.

Hey Phil
My dad back in the '60s made a degaussing coil that he used on the family RCA CTC-7 If memory servers me correctly it was 100 turns of #30 wound in a 18" circle covered in at white bandage tape. The two ends of the coil connected to the AC line. ps. In does get alittle warm when using. Terry |
