Those Zenith models used permanent magnets for centering instead of DC current in the yoke. The fishing lines move the magnets.

I can move the fishing line on one side. It's like a loop and I can pull one side or the other to adjust the picture. But the other side appears to be broken. Its just one piece of line sticking out. Is there any way to repair the broken side so that I can center the picture? Any help is greatly appreciated. This is a beautiful set with a good picture. I just need to get the vertical centering correct.
