Turns out the rheostat that controls the focus is toast. About a third of the wire winds are eaten through.

I did hook up an old VCR/DVD combo with a built in RF output and was able to get a blurry picture..so that's good news.

Any hints on where I can find a 1200 OHM 25 watt ceramic rheostat with a long shaft? The Clarostat part number is RTV-220.

Photo soon...
