Zenith Projector 1985

Thanks Mbates

After some studying I went ahead and put in a new chord with ground and attached the ground to the power supply.

It was quieter but didn't work any better.

I let the set run for a while. And the green didn't brighten up any by the end. Maybe just slightly but enough to make a veiwable difference.

So I wanna try and give the green some new life. Just to see if it works...have some fun.

I have 3 ideas. But do not know witch is the best way to go about it.

Idea #1
Bump up the heater voltage temporarily untill the tube begins to work better. Then return it to normal.

Idea #2
With the heater ON. Charge up a Capacitor. And zap g2 and cathode pins.
(1 uf cap starting with about 100 volts)

Idea #3
With heaters ON. Use a light bulb to do the same thing as the capacitor.

Tell me what you think works best. And I will try it out. I have nothin to lose at this point.
Thanks for your time.
