Thanks for pointing out the distinction on analog vs. TTL. I think the
point is that long persistence units are being produced at a lower
price than the previous discussion indicated.

The difference for changed persistence is all in the picture tube,
isn't it? Production economics being what they are the chassis for
several models are probably very much alike.  So getting one of these
tubes into a monitor with analog amplifiers might be easy.

On the other hand, the phosphors being used might have sufficient
nonlinearity to be unsuitable. Do you know anything about phosphor
theory? I can't claim to.
