I've got a Zenith ZVM-122 Amber monitor, and it occasionally produces a high pitched whine which can be cured by smartly whacking the monitor on the right side.. I've also experience the same symptoms with my DataTrain DC600 on my PC compatible.. I think the whine is related to resonance in the ferrite core of the flyback.. and is harmless but annoying Chris
