Well, finally wrapping this thread up with a success! Here's the Admiral playing away in Nick's room, on a dolly to make it easier to wheel over towards the bed
The loss in vertical sweep was, of all things, an intermittent shorted connection from his recap job. Had to have my friend Ed sort it out because I couldn't find it!
For his first television restoration though? Not bad at all! Once that one crossed wire was sorted out, everything else Nick did was perfect
Last remaining job is to apply the new decals!
