Thanks.
Ok, so here's an update. The good: I was able to get sound and a raster.
The bad: All I'm getting is a horizontal line that takes up about 30% of the screen as seen here:


I fiddled with the vert, horiz, and width controls to no real avail. Adjusting vertical all the way basically makes the picture disappear.

yesterday I had checked the resistors ( or at least I think most of them) and all were within 20% spec. All electrolytics have been replaced and the rest are ceramic disc. I don't have a tube checker for TV tubes so as far as their quality... not sure. Oh- and I'll 'fess up' that I somehow embarrassingly installed one of the new caps backwards initially, turned the set on, saw a wisp of smoke, and installed another correctly. The resistor connected to the other end was nice and toasty looking but still tested within spec as did the rest in the circuit. Not sure that is worth mentioning but oh well..

Quote:
should be connected to something in the -64 to +350 volt range. Often it's just shorted to either G1 or G2.
Does that refer to jumping from pin 1 or 2 from the base of the picture tube?

Thanks in advance...
