Checking Vertical Output Transformers??

[Tubejunke]

I have been taking note of the presence of the sound of the transformer. Earlier on in all this I remember the hearing the sound but it sounded oddly slow. Now the sound is much faster. It sounds like any of my other working sets. I just can't get the sweep, or not much anyway.

One thing that I noticed is that what height I can get seems to go from the center of the crt up, if that makes sense. I can tweak the vert lin. and vert. height controls and I notice that only one of them effects the sweep. What it seems to do is raise the height from a collapsed line up, never down. I always thought that the lin. and height controled separately the upper and lower portions of the raster.

I guess my next step will be pulling the chassis again and doing a piece by piece check on resistors. I have done this once before but perhaps I missed something. Of course I have tried different tubes in the vert, sound, and tuner sections.

Thanks for sticking with me on this. I guess the subject is getting boring by now. Maybe I'll have good news one day.

Do you think you could find a Thordarson or Merit yoke cross reference for me? I have a supply of NOS Flybacks and Yokes. If I had this one in stock I could pop it in just to see if the yoke is the sweep problem and the lack of signal and hum is a whole different problem.
