I wanted to give a progress report. I just finished restuffing the last electrolytic can (4 cans total). I've got 2 tubular electrolytics to replace still. One is in the audio section, and one is a filter in the focus coil network.

All I can get is a horiz line across the screen. I've replaced all caps and most resistors in the vertical circuit. I was hoping this last electrolytic can would solve that as 2 sections were tied into the vertical.

I am now getting an audio signal, but it is way off on he continuous tuner. Ch 3 (cable) is coming in below channel 2. The FM band is coming over the TV band starting around Ch 5. Nothing is coming through with the band switch in the FM position.

I hope the tuner is not out of alignment. I read the alignment instructions today, and the Sams said the tuner is so difficult to align that it recommends replacing the tuner instead of realigning it.

Right now, I need to concentrate on the vertical section and try to get an image on the screen.
