Nice, i've wanted one of these for awhile now! show a pic!

Has it been re-capped? if so, it could be a tube in the vertical circuits, or even a new cap failed in the vert.

As far as I know, I really have no clue if the previous owner(s) had it recapped or not. I never recapped it, and it is been in my possession for... I believe more than a year ( my memory isn't too good these days ).

Here are a few pics I took of it days before I sent it to the tech:

Did it come from the US or locally.
I don't remember if Brazil is 50 or 60 HZ. That could the problem for the underscan. Different line frequency.
It's a power transformer set with a voltage doubler.

The set came from a local dealer of antique itens, but he coudn't or didn't wanted to tell me where he acquired the TV. Anyway, these TVs were sold here in the 1950's - they do occasionaly appear on the antiquitys market.
