Picked up this beautiful sansui 27" the other day!
I have a question for y'all though. I was a complete idiot, and had this in my hatch back. I was on a hill and started off and I did not have the TV as stable as I should have and it tipped face forward and hit my back window pretty hard at about 45 degree angle (amazingly nothing broke). I was terrified I broke it but thankfully it works fine, except that when its a cold startup it has horizontal Lines on the top 4" or so. After about 5 minutes they Go away . I'm almost positive this is my fault although maybe it was already doing that, previous owner didn't say ofc. I'm wondering, is there a fix for this or should I leave it? Will it get worse overtime ? I'm not new to electronic work (guitar tube amps, tape machines etc) but in this situation I'm not sure the best way. (Pic is when warmed up)
I can post a pic of the lines tomorrow. Really hope I didn't fuck this thing up :(
Yeah I'm likely gonna have to replace the cap someday. I'd like to adjust those pots too. I'm not too keen on opening one up but I've worked on tube Amps and house electricity before so I'm not too concerned if I'm careful.
