I'll have to work out how to unwrap the boards from around the CRT! The MX2000 was easy, but the MX3500 seems to have everything crammed into too small a space. I don't understand what you mean by "Maybe next week there is a workshop power supply MX3500/5500", though. Has anyone made a list of electroytic capacitors inside an MX3500, so I can order then prior to dismantling?

Is it normal?</p><p>On all my previous (non B&amp;O) TVs, the picture faded up, a few seconds after power-on. However, on my MX3500, about two seconds after power-on, I get an all grey raster, with vertical retrace lines visible. A second or so later, this fades away, to leave a good picture, with no retrace lines visible.</p><p>To me, this suggests that the set is feeding extra current somewhere on power-up (most likely grid G2, or cathodes) and then backing off to a normal level. Do these TVs do this to get faster start-up? If so, are the visible effects meant to be suppressed somehow, or is the behaviour normally visible?</p><p>Of course, it could be a faulty TV!&nbsp;</p><p>Mark</p><p><br />p.s., If I&#39;ve used the wrong forum please tell me - it was hard to decide between &quot;Workbench&quot; and &quot;Vintage&quot;.<br /></p><div style="clear:both;"></div>
