Common problem not just in Zeniths but all designs using B Boost to feed V.osc.
B&W as well as color sets.

And drift high it did. Supposed to be 473K, tested at 567K. Picture is much improved, but still has foldover on the bottom. After about 5 minutes of folling around with the adjustments, the picture went somewhat out of focus, and I stopped there.
One interesting thing to note....every time the screen changed scenes drastically (dark to light), I'd lose vertical lock.
