Zenith 19" Chromacolor II service suggestions

[zeno]

Moire started showing up on 14" chromacolor hybrids. If the customer
noticed it we were to touch up the focus, brite & contrast. If an in-line
the G-2 also. If they still complained change the CRT.
If you go looking for it its quite common. Blank stationary scenes are best
to see it. Happens on other brands also, not just on Zenith EFL CRT's.

Test for DGS is with a COLD set. Hook up an ANALOG AC ampmeter on
the AC line or use a Power rite etc. Turn on the set while watching meter.
The meter will swing very high then settle at apx .75 amps with normal pix.

Using my Amprobe on 6A scale I'm getting about 2.25A for 2 seconds on cold turn on. Then settles to less than 1A. Seem reasonable?

If moire is that common I'm gonna just try'n not worry about it.

Thanks again for your expertise.
