Joe,
The convergence assembly in the pic hanging to the left of the broken neck... use some TLC with that. Those assemblies can sometimes be quite brittle and break. Also, considering the missing part of the neck, do you see the centering rings in there somewhere? There should be two rings with little tabs on a plastic piece that fit over the neck. CTC-15's are typically pretty easy to work on. The worst part is installing all of those damn electrolytics... whether you're going to restuff the original cans, or just tuck new replacements under (and over) the chassis somewhere. There are several threads in this forum regarding CTC-15's. It would be worth your time to read over some of them. Good luck with your set.

You will also need to find the blue lateral convergence magnet to get static convergence to work.

Yep, forgot about that one. If it didn't get ripped away, it should also be hanging by a blue wire that is typically soldered or clipped to the convergence board.

Sorry... no can do at the moment. I am on board ship heading into Puget Sound... far, far away from my sets. Won't be home again till September. I looked in my laptop, but don't have a good enough shot of the back of a color tube where all the goodies mount up.
The magnet is typically the last thing on a roundie tube... usually held on with a spring, and there is a ground wire on the spring bracket that connects to the chassis of the convergence board above. I'm sure someone else here can snap a quick pic of what you need to look for.

I kept digging, and finally found some shots from my Curtis Mathes. The magnet in question here is the item closest to the base cap... has a spring on the bottom, and the magnet is on the opposite side... that stick standing up with the blue ink on the end of it. Note the wire on the bracket... it will go up to the convergence board and clip on there... or soldered.

an update:.
Have the chassis out and going through it thoroughly, all three wax caps in this set were bad. And so far all three electrolytics were bad. Surprisingly, the one e cap, had a reading of 80uf, instead of the marked 50uf. I would assume when they got older they would drift lower. My capitance meter is well worth the $16 i paid for it. Started yesterday checking resistors. ONmy digital multimeter, one reads 1, all all settings for ohms, does that mean it's shorted? |
