I realize that Tony didn't post the original, but if you want a Wyse60 with
a _really dim_ CRT let me know :-).

But for Tony and others, the radiation component for monitors measures:
        magnetic fields
        visible light bands
        ultra-violet thru x-ray bands
Part of the equation comes from the circuitry and the accellerating
potential on the electrons, and part is the phosphor composition (which
converts the kinetic energy of electrons into other wavelengths of course).
I've got a handbook on this somewhere but I think it is also on-line on the
US FCC site or the Dept of Commerce.
