After replacing all of the paper capacitors and most of the electrolytics, I was eager to see if I was going to get a raster. I hooked up my HD converter and slowly brought the set up on a variac. I received a nice bright raster, video and sound! I still need to replace a few electrolytics, adjust the yoke and replace the tuning eye. Success so far, seeing that big 19" crt light up!

Ok, this set is officially recapped and looking great. Very sharp video, now I just have to align the audio so it's strong when the video is strong. Once I do that and replace the tuning eye, this set will be done.

Hogaaaaan!!!

Nice work. Check the tubes in the tuner and IF sections. It shouldn't need an alignment.

When the video is sharp, I get hardly any audio. When I tune almost completely off of the station, audio is very strong. Do you think it's a tube causing this?
