Well as the LOPT was drying out I got down to some decorating so it's had a good few days drying out .

I now have full width and a fantastic picture when first switched on.
But as time goes on the width stays the same but the height increases over half hour with some loss definition but not as bad as before
After about 45 mins the snaking is realy bad even making the picture break up . Then it settles down a little .
So what do I do now
I don't want to give up on this one . I could try and show some pictures if that helps . Andy
