I changed the video output tube last night which seemed to eliminate the flashing in the picture. I touched up the AGC, buzz control and greyscale drive adjustments. The set is really looking good. I think I am at the point where I need to bolt the chassis down, install the back and bottom covers and declare victory. If I don't, I'll never stop messing with this thing. I get like this when I finish TV restorations. I keep checking and rechecking to make sure everything is right. After a while though, I relax and enjoy the results. I put on a DVD of classic commercials and it was like time travel watching 1960s and '70s commercials on a mid-Sixties TV.
