	Since I got my Amiga over the summer, I have had a problem with
my monitor frequently making popping or snapping noises, very quietly,
accompanied by a flash from the screen.  This is not a normal Amiga
error-screen-flash flash, but a very fast jump of the whole image.
   I bought the machine in Michigan and when I asked about the problem
was told that the difficulty was probably due to power surges.  However
upon moving to Cambridge the popping continued.  I then went to the local
dealer, who turned out to be worse than useless and kept putting me off.
By then the warranty had ran out.  I still have the problem.
   It's nothing wrong with the machine, just the monitor, and it's never
caused any performance problems.  It's just annoying.
   Has anyone else had similar problems, and what can be done about it?
I don't really want to ship my monitor away for weeks to be repaired.
  Thanks in advance,
