Metal. 16GP4.
No poor connedtions, dirty sockets, etc. I checked brightness control. Good.
Replaced a bad 100K resistor to that control.
Made slight difference. I now barely see a picture in daylight.
Very dim. Tried a different picture tube. No change.

Tried different ion traps. No change.
I'm getting 12KV hv on bell of picture tube.
Vert. is now stable, but, control is one sided.
Horiz. is stable.
Sync is a little twitchy.
I have good reception.
