so I am putzing around with it somemore and I notice the horz scan lines have a slight wiggle in the last couple of inches on the far right side. Damn...

keep looking at it, try a new H osc tube, reset the horz osc coil (ground the test point a set for float by), no sine wave coil on the GE to fool with. still there.

get scope, has a funny looking bump on the flat top, but that may just be the scope picking something up. looking at the set in the mirror hmmm.

Take a break, start up the movie again, odd some french words (part of the movie warnings are in french for some reason), any way I did not know the french read from right to left, its been a while since I took french in HS but I do not remember that...

next come the Brothers Warner imblem, wait thats supposed tot be WB not BW..

Duh horz yoke hooked up backwards. all the time I was looking in the mirror and it looked right. I reverse the horz leads on the yoke and the little squiggle is gone. Sometimes the easy stuff will get you.

I am going to put it away now before I break something. The HO tube is at 195ma so I hope my overheating fly is done. I will get a new lin coil and replace that later to see if that makes the lin adjustment point more reasonable looking, but I have had my fill of this one for a while.
