Re: Samsung P2770 vertical bands

Hello

Most everybody calls me DrO (or DrOli sometimes). I am, mostly, a "math geek". Have started to take deeper interest electronics being triggered by my desire to fix my Samsung TV's wonky power supply, and taught myself enough about caps, soldering etc to succeed.

Now on to more ambitious, though still newbie, tasks :-)
