I have had a Commodore 1702 monitor for about six years, and I have found it
to be more reliable than my c64.  We even use it as a VCR monitor.
Unfortunately, when I turned it on last night, something strange happened.  
Everything is tinted purple.  When I remove the chroma plug, instead of 
displaying things in shades of black, it's shades of purple.  I am virtually 
certain that the problem is with the monitor itself, and not my commodore 64c.
Has anyone else ever had this problem?  Is it easily (inexpensively) fixed, or
should I just go out and buy a new one?  ThADVANCEanks.
