Not really.
If the regulator is not working then yes the picture will bounce with scene changes. There is another problem though if the thing loads down, blooms, blurs out and the 3A3 filament dies. Ok maybe I am talking out my ass, ignore me |

the hv does not hold steady it will go from 24kv to 23kv so this is not steady. this is where the hv pot is at , max 24kv and if i lower it to 20kv it drops more with scene changes and tweaking the eff coil did nothing if anything i maybe got alittle as the hv probe needle moved up a speck when i lowered the ma to 190ma. i am about ready to air a nasty video of a silvertone in its last days,lol.

you are worried about a 1kv change? that's it? a total of 1kv? from dark to light? are you serious?

How about C96 and C97? I have seen those go bad, they usually short.
A few kv or swing is not a problem and is normal. When does it bloom? |

no im not bothered by that but scene changes the hv drops from 24kv depending on the scene like white or others it will drop to 19kv. so its not regulating or something is dragging the hv down for whatever reason.

if those 2 caps are off the lin pot then no they were not changed.

Sounds like something is loading it down, overdriving the crt. So if you get a commercial or something thats all white with text then the picture blows out and blooms?? |

no it actually dont bloom from that its only bwhen i wanted to raise the crt bias to brighten it up alittle thats when it blooms and when white scenes are present the picture goes alittle dark because theres not enough hv it seems. if i leave the bias ccw i dont bloom but different colors make it dark and i confermed this by watching the hv probe on different scenes bias down.

Maybe it had an esl dump.
Did you do the setup the way it says in sams under greyscale? Does that end up with the bias to high? If you have a really strong crt the bias will be all the way down. You really only want to advance the bias once one of the screens is maxed out. |

If that jumper is missing, put it back as soon as possible to restore the regulation. If your HV goes too high, the CRT neck may shear off.
