 The fault is in the vertical scan. The top 2 lines (or
so) are spread
out, so that the top row of characters appears to have black lines
running through them. In other words the vertical scan is very non-linear
at the top. 

I have seen this on many VR241's when the HT supply is about ready to smoke.
(literally)  I have not taken the time fix them as I normally have a few
spares readily available for exchange.  I buy them for a LOT less than my
time is worth to fix one.  (free to $30 - shipping is more than the monitor
usually)
