Hey guys!
Iv'e been really busy with work and all,
Hope all is well!
Well my Zenith color set finally bit the bullet..
The 6BA11 Vert osc/output tube is out
The tube tests well, I turned on the set yesterday and had a vertical raster line accross the screen. Noticed the filiment was dard on the tube, If I move the tube the filiment lights and vertical is restored. I know the filiment or heater id the first 2 pins on the socket on both sides between the setter position.. I checked all connectioons on the bottom of the socket and they are good. I also tried cleaning the socket and tube pins. Have you seen these sockets go bad? Im thinking the connection in the socket between the pin and solder point somehow broke. Or does anyone have a replacement socket?
Thanks!
Shawn
