Just to include a summary of what was changed during the restoration.
Capacitors:
This chassis has about 72 caps.
21 paper caps that were all changed
6 electrolytic caps that were all changed
There were 4 disc caps that I changed that were on the high side of tolerance.
There were 6 mica caps that were changed. 2 were from the IF can on the tuner. 2 were 1Kv caps that were in tolerance but were changed because of the high voltage rating, the other 2 were in tolerance but changed anyway.
For a total of 37 caps changed or 51%.
Resistors:
This chassis has about 72 resistors. All were changed.
54 resistors were out of tolerance. Some just barely all the way up to 278%.
Of the 18 left, 6 were just a few points from being out of tolerance and were changed anyway.
Of the 12 left, they were well within tolerance. 4 of them from the tuner that got changed while I was "in there" changing the 4 resistors that were out of tolerance.
So looking at percentages:
75% out of tolerance
8% close to being out of tolerance
17% well within tolerance.
Tubes:
18 tubes - 1 was shorted when I received the TV.
4 were on the low side of green.
The 5Y3G rectifier tube was installed but should have been a 5U4G tube due to the transformer being one of the small percentage chassis that got a transformer from a vendor that didn't quite meet the specs for using a 5Y3G tube.
The 7JP4 CRT displays a good picture, not a great one but a very good one though.
