Here's one more that I brought back from that TV shop in SC, a 19" RCA XL-color hybrid set from '74. When turned on, it comes up with a full, sharp raster. After a few seconds, it loses vertical deflection. When changing channels, the vertical will act like it wants to fill out and then it goes back to a horizontal line. So far, the only thing I have learned about this set is that it has an HV shutdown circuit that disables the vertical circuit when the HV goes too high. This set looks similar to the older models with the 18V low focus voltage CRT; but, this one uses a tripler HV supply with a 19V high focus voltage CRT. This looks like it would be a decent set once it's fixed.
