Hi to all You geniuses,
recently i have acquired Amiga 3000 and Commodore 1942 monitor. "With a little help from my friends" and my self, i have clean them, recap them, and now i have one minor problem. 1942 have great picture on 95% part of the screen, but on the right side, picture is a little bit "skewed". I have taken some pictures to show mouse pointer, how it is normal before that "line", and when You go over that line, it seems like it goes "to the back".
Is there any "easy" fix for that, or is the monitor "too old for this $hit" like Murtaugh 😀

Thanks in advance

Forgot to mention of "relative high hissing" sound in highlighted area for around minute or so. Later the hissing sound fades a lot. Could that be the capacitor problem (should i recap the monitor) or it's not necessary for now?
Thanks

I have finally tried picture on 31KHz, and i could get it fully right. So this "lousy" picture is only on 15KHz. There is no problem on 31KHZ! I refused to think that rgb (DB23/vga) to vga from my Amiga is faulty, because the picture on 1084 or any other monitor is ok with this adapter, only problem is on this 1942.
Now i'm confused.....
