Tim & to all: OFF TOPIC bulletin that has already been okayed by Tim to put on thread. I introduced myself 2 months ago on this thread and have really enjoyed working with everyone. I have been in the electronic sales & service business, consumer & industrial for 35 yrs. Most everyone knows what a screen saver is for. It keeps images from being burnt into the phosphor of your picture tube. The same thing can happen to your TV. Most of us watch CNBC or Bloomburg daily. The white ticker tape displayed across the bottom can & will burn that image into your TV. To prevent this the contrast must be turned down to 1/4 of it's maximum range and the brightness no more than 1/2 of it's range. All other settings, like color, etc, have no effect. At XMAS, I treated myself to a new 55" big screen: forgot & left it at factory settings & now I have permanent ticker tape on the bottom of everything. DUMB DUMB DUMB!!! Big screens are more prone to this problem than glass tubes. ROTTS UF RUCK TOMORROW; BILL
P.S. Any questions: PM me.
