Apple IIgs RGB Monitor

The monitor i have for my GS seems fuzzy and not crisp. I have only been able to get into the setup menu so far. is this normal or should it be crisp?

No, it's not normal. Yes, it should be crisp like a CRT.

I purchased it on ebay and in the pictures posted it looked fine. is it possible it could be a motherboard issue? Before i contact the seller i just want to make sure Its monitor issue.

thank you again for the reply.

If you remove the back cover from the Apple IIGS monitor, there is a focus knob you can adjust.

I have 3 of these monitors and they all got blurry over time. Luckily adjusting the focus is pretty easy. It's just inconvenient that the focus knob is inside the case instead of outside.
