Sorry, I wasn't clear. I didn't mean greyscale stored on the tube. I
meant, can it read out how much of a pixel is covered by drawn lines and
interpret that as greyscale?
Well, the whole process in the original equipment is analog. You're
not going to see aliasing due to discrete sampling, because there
isn't any. You will see aliasing due to the bandwidth of the analog
signals, but there isn't anything changing so fast that its outside
the bandwidth of the circuitry.
For that matter, how big are the pixels?
There aren't any pixels.
