Thanks, but Mrs. Amato doesn't have children and I wanted it to be a real repair. I do like the swirling rainbow mess, but he would be able to see the interference on the spot if that were the case and he wouldn't bring the set in to the shop.

Mrs. Amato could also possibly degauss the picture tube with the vacuum cleaner running nearby, creating a swirling rainbow mess on the screen as she moved the sweeper back and forth.

Just a couple of ideas, hopefully helpful.
