Can you get serivce contacts for all classic computers???? Is there a 
call centre for techncial support (note : anyone who publishes my 'phone 
number and claims that's what it is will be connected between fianl anode 
and chassis of my DEC VR14 [1] :-)).

[1] This is the vector monitor for a VT11/GT40/etc. The EHT to the final 
anode comes from a sealerd (oil-filled?) can which takes mains in (4 
connetions, series/parallel wiring for 115 or 230V mains) and gives out 
about 10kV/ According to the schematic printed on the can, it's a mains 
transdformer follewed by a voltage doubler and could easily supply enough 
current to be deadly. I am always very careful when working on that monitor.
