James, Could you explain this in a little more detail? Exactly where did you apply the magnet and what type of monitor are you using? Are the black lines vertical or horizontal? Don't worry about additional xray, the radiation is produced when the electron beam strikes the faceplate due to the high voltage. (30-45 KV)
