Re: B&W yoke magnets ?

Sounds like you need some magna card business card magnets (business card sized magnets with a sticky side). I bought some but haven't actually used them yet. I swear they should work great though. Here is the message I posted about them a while back:

When you converge a monitor, you converge the colors in the center of the screen. You have to use the magnetic strips (aka shunts) to adjust the over/under convergence at the edges. I have absolutely no clue where you buy these shunts, but I did get something else that may be useful. I bought some business card magnets. Check out this URL:

They are tacky enough to stay in place temporarily as you try to tweak the picture. Well, in theory, that is.. I haven't actually tried using them yet :) Some day...

They're rectangular, about 15mm x 3mm x 3mm from memory and cause terrible pincushioning on one side when a couple are missing! It can be crudely corrected by holding a magnetised screwdriver in the right place but I'm running out of volunteers ;-)
