Argus, thanks, but I've already used those controls and that is a much coverage as I can get.
There's your answer. You've adjusted it as good as you're going to get. My 1950 had those borders, as well.
You MIGHT be able to adjust them down a bit more with some of the internal controls... But they are unlabelled and I don't recall seeing any documentation on them anywhere. (And good luck figuring them out without it.) Also, to get to those, you'd have to open the monitor, and unless you are trained and know proper grounding procedures and know exactly what you're doing, I'd highly recommend NOT cracking a 1950 open. The flyback in those models seems to be particularly dangerous. I worked on my 1950 monitor once... I thought I fully discharged it [clipped off the lead to a ground, etc] yet it still threw quite a nasty spark to a grounded plate while I was working on the device. I'm not sure if I used a bad technique for the discharge and had been lucky while working on other monitors in the past or if something about the nature of the 1950 made it do that.... But I learned my lesson. Monitors are only to be opened by those who truly know what they're doing. Trust me, you DON'T want to be hit with a spark the likes of which jumped only a few inches from my hand.
Maybe the monitor is faulty?
No more so than any other C=1950. That's just the nature of the beast.
