gonna need some work..
pic on the newer TV is pretty linear, but sync tears some at the top, RF needs to be turned up near full, horz adj is at one extreme, just barely locks, has a lot of snow.
color bars work ok, but not great, kinda washed out, and the adj seems to have minimal effect. RF output is only good on two of the channels.
The 1st thing I will try is cleaning the RF channel selector. I replaced several of the weak old tubes (12at7 and 12au7). I need to find a strong 6cb6, I think it is part of the RF. I replace it with a stronger tube and the pic went away. Put the orig back in. I dont know maybe its critical on the tuning.
My guess is the horz is just going to be an adj of a trimmer pot to bring the horz adj control back into center range.
The scanned image was also to big, and offset. This was the cas on 3 different sets. I will be doing some reading up on how that is adj. My guess is the CRT is under scanning, but that is just a guess.
I will need to check the voltages before going too far to make sure all is good on the B+. It uses a 6ca4 dual diode, that has not yet been checked.
