thanks for the tube charlie! i got it. but.
OUt to the beep trash this peice of beep TV goes. now its even more fucked up. The sound is so hard to describe, there is no audio. just fuz popping in and out (oscillating fuz). there is HV, and the osc circuits are working. but now there is no raster. Im so fucking pissed i cant see streight. Ive NEVER had this many problems with a TV before in my life. sorry for the language, if you havent noticed already, I have a short fuse, and it blows alot. that last .005 all the way at the end by the flyback may have gone south (that metal can one). I heard momentary arcing for a sec or to, and it stopped. now there isnt a raster, and no sound, but static in the speaker popping in and out like a clock.

Sweet Jesus! I've been on the edge of my seat thru this whole ordeal and fell off of it when you said you had tossed the set.......now I'm back on the chair with my butt firmly planted.
YAY! Am glad that you were able to cool off and discover this latest thing, it's similar to when I'm repairing a car......I'll get frustrated and pissed causing me to cuss up a blue streak and toss tools around. Then I'll storm away only to cool off while the entire time I've got it in the back of my mind, allowing the subconscious to figure it out. Sometimes I'll leave it be to the next day and actually dream of the fix! No foolin, guess I'm channeling Edgar Cayce LOL! Anthony |

Does this set have the metal plate covering the bottom?
If so something might be arcing to it. |

I was darn tempted to toss it out the window.
but, it works outside the cabinet. maybe something was shorting when it was cramped into the cabnet. I dunno. |

Oh, these little Motorolas are cute but infuriating. I have one with a typically shot 7JP4, and to add to the fun, it randomly dead shorts or blows out rectifier diodes in the PS. No rhyme/reason to it. It's not an HK short on the CRT, I once put a transformer supply to the heater and gave it about 15V and got a respectable picture.
I'd say next to the Predictas, these things have to be the worst sets out there to get going, but they're so darn cute.... Vertyical lin troubles got me, too. So I'm getting some ideas here on what to look into when I decide to tackle mine again. |

Not working when you put it in its cabinet... With it on the bench working, try carefully twisting the chassis a little, and various portions of the chassis up top (being careful of voltages and hot tubes). You might be able to find a bad connection or loose tube or such. This can be agravating.....

YIPPEEEEE!
Hot damn! He's cookin' with gas now!
Congrats, Mike! I know you're glad it's finally over! So what turned out to be the problem when you would put it back in the cabinet? I've always wanted one of those Motors. I like that one over the "suitcase" model. Drinkin a beer for ya dude!
