- Just thought I'd throw this in on the off chance it might
- be useful. My new tv got some annoying lines on the
- bottom and right of the screen when I accidently sat it
- screen down for a few minutes after using it.
-
- I ended up fixing it by using the magnetic field from
- from a normal 8 ohm audio speaker out of my junk box and
- rubbing the affected areas. It worked like a charm...
-
- Maybe using a weaker field like that that takes longer to
- work but doesn't send out as powerful a blast as a bulk
- eraser would work?
