What do you mean by "faint screens" ??? what happens when
you increase the screen voltage?  Just in case, check the
wire from the HV splitter to the focus block, every once
in a while you believe it is properlly inserted but it is not.
Those focus blocks go bad sometimes, I have changed
a few of them, but they were obviously cracked (they
die by overheating)
