Don't you love it when it's just a tube swap?
My second Admiral 24A12 would not synch in the Hor. axis. I had checked all components up and down the line. It's over at my good buddy Dick Slade's house. He's a Renssalaer Poly Tech grad from the 50's. He found the problems. The Hor AFC Slug was broken. Turning it had little effect. A dab of JB Weld fixed that. Also, A 82K 1/2 watt resistor measured 95k, and that was enough to keep the Hor. Hold from locking in. I had checked it and figured it was close enough, given vintage TV's "wide variances" in components. Guys like Dick Slade are worth their weight in gold. "The Professor" on Gilligan's Island has nothing on this guy..
