Anyway, svm plus the skyhigh factory contrast setting on these sony's and you have a recipe for severe phosphor burn, especially as a heavily used monitor.

And come to think of it, a LOT of b&w sets I've seen, vintage or not, have some type of burnt screen. On vintage sets its either the center dot due to lack of a spot-killer, or the infamous vertical collapse burn across the screen.

You can also disable SVM in the service menu
