I unsoldered one end of the vertical yoke winding and got about 1,300 ohms. I think that's about right since there are two 560 ohm resistors shown in the schematic in the yoke windings.

Anyone have an idea? This is driving me nuts!

Thanks.

A shorted electrolytic cap(polar or NP) in the vertical deflection ciruit would be my bet.
