The problem to the point.  I have a 19" Quasar made in May '83.  Due to a
very strong electrical shock, the screen flickers to a green color which
lasts usually less than a second but sometimes lasts several seconds.  This
happens maybe 5 times/day.  Been serviced once and supposedly fixed, only
to find the problem creep back after while.  When the screen goes green, there
are some diagonal lines on the screen as well (not a pure green display).
There is, in fact, a service/normal adjustment accessible from the back.
I've had a reply stating that it is possibly kicking in momentarily at random.
Anyone else with some ideas/advice?
