I'm not sure if this is actually a case of "jail bars" or not:
On the left side of the screen (most noticeable on the boxing ring's "canvas") are a few faint vertical lines. The are actually on the whole screen, but usually they are so faint that the only noticeable ones are on the left. Both monitors in my machine have this same issue, and they do it when being driven by either my Super Punch-Out boardset or my Punch-Out boardset (I don't have a way to test any other boards with the monitors).
I recapped both of these chassis in 2006 using cap kits from Zanen, and it didn't change anything. I recapped the lower monitor's chassis (pictured above) again last night with Bob Robert's "Plus Kit with 9 more chassis caps" thinking that maybe the extra capacitors compared to Zanen's kit would solve the problem (I also replaced the big filter cap last night); but still no change.
B+ (tested after warming up for 20 minutes) is +108 VDC.
