most of the later model Trinitron's don't really show scanlines very well even at 240p (see pic)

plus most people think of scanlines as very dark and thick (thanks to emulation filters), only some CRTs have very dark thick scanlines (Sony PVM and BVM with 800 TVL resolution or the older Toshiba Pro series monitors

this picture is from a 2001 sony Trinitron

as you can see most of what's visible as the dot structure and aperture grille. scanlines are kind of hard to pick out.

(scanlines were considered undesirable around this time. this style of tube also hides interlacing better when watching DVDs)
