EDIT: I might be imagining it, but I think my set somehow started having more reasonable contrast since doing the mod.

EDIT 2: Oh, and also I changed the values again since the first post. It's much less 'drastic' now, and I just tweaked the values enough to get a stable picture from a VHS source, but not enough to totally remove the bend at the top.

EDIT 3: Actually, I don't think I was reading the voltmeter quickly enough. The voltage drops when I hold the probes in place, but it starts out around -3.9V before it drops.
