Cool!
Some sites talk about removing the face plate and
cleaning it and
reattaching it, but I've only seen sites talk about this as a
possibility, not any stories from anyone who's actually done it. I
think replacing the CRT would be preferable.
No, it's actually been done, and well documented on the net. I don't have
the URL handy, but the guy who did it is on the list here. Replacing the CRT would be preferable, but only in the
case of dealing with
somewhat standard gear. Every piece of gear I have that has the dreaded
screen mold, replacing the crt is not likely as the crt is somewhat
oddball/nonstandard. Not something you can just order up. I will be giving
the faceplate removal thing a try when I get to that DG terminal for sure.
Is this a Dasher?
