My first Roundie: a CTC-16 in a chineese cabinet

[jpdylon]

After changing out the HV regulator, and cleaning the pots, and clearing out the rest of the crud on the chassis, I brought it up slow from 40-90 for about 40 mins. The filters stayed nice and cool, so I popped in the damper and HO and gave it a go. It appears that 2 of the large filter cans were replaced at some time.

I was greeted with a bight, sharp raster that obviously needed some convergence and height adjustments. Right now there is no color, but the 1st color amp and detector tubes are dead, as is the AGC/sync seperator. It was really hard to lock in a picture at first. You can see the temperature probe in the picture is a little wavy. The lack of height I think is due to the fat lytic cap near the vert out tube. The height twitches from big to small alot when cold. The vert out tube tests fine.

Now if i could just find my tripod so the pic won't be so jittery...
