Re: Is it advisable to turn intensity down when scope is idle (but displaying a signal) to preserve CRT?
Hi Ransom
It's all a matter of opinion.

phosphor burn risks.
However, any type op phosphor will degrade over time (even those

While writing code for a PIC microcontroller, I have the PIC circuit
connected to the scope to see the waveform (sine wave, not changing
position for example). I will leave the circuit connected to
