I just bought a 2nd hand COMPAL 14" digital monitor (made
in 1997) and it works ok, but the problem is that the "black"
isn't "black" !!  Its GRAY (or grey if you prefer ;-)

Any ideas how I can fix this or what could be causing it? I've
spent a couple of hours fiddling with the colour, contrast and
brightness controls, but still nothing...

Is there likely to be a simple fix that I can do myself (maybe
with a soldering iron) ?

Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks
Mark
