It may be time to get rid of that blob since that may be affecting
things & needs fixing anyways.
Also do you have a manual ??

Well the CRT was a bit on the low side but still in the green (ever so slightly) but tracking wasn't to good so I decided to clean and balance it , and that brought the guns back quite a bit , so I assume it's not a problem of bad CRT.

I posted two pictures of the pattern I use for convergence. First one (black and white) is with brightness and contrast lowered and "color" set to none. The next one is about 20 sec later with color , brightness and contrast set up for an adequate picture, but not on the overkill side, only good enough for viewing.

As you can see, the lines that appeared converged on the first picture lights up like a chrismas tree! haha.

I do not have a manual as of right now but I think Marco does...
