Replaced 4 last caps, 2 in the sync circuit, 2 connected to the vertical deflection coils. Lin is just about perfect now, but horizontal seems a bit wavy. I think one or more of the 'lytics may be buying the farm, so I guess I'll have to restuff them before calling this one done. Pretty nice pitcure so far though: "I've got a golden ticket!"

Most sets that use metal cone tubes seem to have very poor or no emission at all, whereas this one has a practically new tube in it. I'll try a few more lytics, then power it up again.

Nick, You need another project! Build a color wheel for this set and get one of Darryl's great little converters. You'll see how good REAL Color TV looks!

Last thing I need to tell my wife is that I want to build a 60" color wheel for a set I have no room for! lol

Edit: checked the audio section, it's working just like it's supposed to. This set is done, but I can't keep it unfortunately. Off to market it goes.
