I've had problems with my display rolling.  It looks like when the vertical
hold is turned as far as possible from the correct position on a TV;
the same image is repeated overlapping several times on the screen, each time
displaced up or down at regular intervals.  Usually, though not always, I
get the problem when I haven't used the machine for a while, and it usually
goes away if I leave it on for a couple of hours.

Anyone else seen this sort of thing?  Is there a relatively easy solution?
I'm not really a hardware type and I can't afford DEC servicing.  (Besides,
I could probably buy an entire 80286 system for the cost of servicing my
obsolete Rainbow.  Me, bitter?)
