Seem like someone told me that the TV electron gun operates at 60
cycles per second.
Not at all sure this is right, but it MAY make a one way sweep of the
screen every 1/60 of a sec.
Someone else claimed the gun made a complete picture every 1/30 of a
sec. That COULD mean one two way sweep.
IOW, I don't know either.
HD and Plasma notwithstanding.
