"Another problem is you may see some slight bars in the picture on a black screen. I was not able to track down that problem. Not that noticeable, And most people would not even see them."

I've always noticed them too, quite common on roundie Zeniths. About three light/transparent vertical bars, no foldover, just there!

Interesting you mention that. Mine has them too. They are not a problem, but just there.

There is no way i would use those surface mount caps unless you want to see a failure in a day or so. throw them in the garbage.
