Distorted video on MM70 monitor

Applicable to: World-Wide

Symptom:
Sound from the monitor speakers is causing the video to become distorted or "wavy"

Resolution:
This is a known issue with these monitors. The speakers are inducing secondary vibrations in the shadow mask inside the monitor tube. This may be observed in all MM70 monitors and may also be observed to a lesser extent in MM50 monitors.

During the design of this monitor, steps were taken to minimize this problem. There are no additional field or rework solutions for this issue.
