Thanks for the response, Jer, but someone else suggested elsewhere
that the blue lamp was probably going, and would eventually have to be
replaced. So, I guess I'll just have to wait until it happens again to
see if the lamp did fail, as I don't know how to test the degaussing
coil or circuit. Nor would I feel comfortable replacing either of
those. So I hope it is a lamp.
Any additional opinions as to the nature of the problem iwould
therefore also be appreciated.
Thanks
Bill
