I may have some hv problems now (14k=GP4).I checked the hv with my probe
and max is 11k.Sams (set-124,folder-6)says about 13k on it.Well the 2k
difference may be hurting me some but the screen is so dim you have to turn out the light to see it.Adjusted the trap and it did help but not very much.So
what do you suggest i do ? Maybe a leaky cap? Where? This set has been a bear to get this far with it.I have replaced all output tubes and the hv rect with new ones.Forgot to tell you i replaced some capacitors but mostly in the vert. and horiz.circuits.A couple resistors that was way off value.To top it off the tuner is being rebuilt at Quality Tuner (nice guy).Tried a Beltron Restorer
on it and no go.So i don't know if the tube has been restored before or not.A
brightener sure helps alot so i came to the conclusion that i had a bad tube.
Open for any suggestions on how to proceed with this.I was about to give up
until i found this site and all the great help.So, with the help here, the OLD SETS have a good chance of living again.They are a very important part
of our past.Thanks Again-Don.
