Well I know that the Double Dragon has a narrow width resolution but I'm wondering what other guys out there do.

Do you guys max out your width coil or use a width cap adjusted value to max it out on screen? The problem with this is that when you swap to another game (which these cabs are just really good for... you end up with a game way too wide.

Then you've got to adjust it back to fit and vice versa.
What do others do?
 
None of my 19" monitors have a width adjustment on a remote board.
 
My Vindicators does the same thing. I had to put a G07 as the tube for the original Sharp XM-2001N was bad. I can screw the ferrite core completely out of the horizontal width coil and it still doesn't fit the screen. I just live with it as it's temporary until I find a replacement tube.
 
No it's not a real width thing as much as the game resolution isn't wide enough to fit the screen in normal adjustments.

I put in SF2 and adjust it to perfection, swap to DD and it's all narrow. I saw a listing that shows that DD is just lower resolution width wise, which causes this effect.

It can be adjusted in on my monitor, which is nice.... I don't want to stick my arm in there to adjust this every time I swap in games (which is idea for a DD since the PCB tray is right there.
