How long should the horizontal take to settle in? The oscillator is noticeably drifting, enough to require readjusting every 30 seconds or so. It's not hard to get a lock, just hard to keep the lock.
Yes, the caps next to the Y-amps get COOKED! and I had to replace mine.

I rarely have to adjust my horizontal hold, perhaps once in a blue moon when turned on, then it stays locked, there is a voltage dependent resistor in the power line to the horizontal hold circuit, if that is worn it could cause problems, but replacements are rather unobtainium.
