After years of collecting dust, I've decided to give the tv another go. My earlier attempt was to replace all of the paper caps and electrolytics. I took an easy path and placed the Electrolytics physically around the chassis. The TV turned on, but had a vertical compression. I am unable to get the vertical scan to extend more than 4" or so. I have gone back in to replace the electrolytics and build a sub board to mount them. Good news, I still haven't killed the tv or myself
Bad news, the vertical scan remains at about 4". I exchanged the 6sN7tubes and have the same result. I have now ordered the 8 resistors in the vertical circuit. Come this weekend, I hope to have them replaced. Attached is a pic of the current output. Any other thoughts on repairs?
