I have built simple couplates in the past using perf board, but these are some stacked up monstrosities with 12 pins. Anybody here attempt to make one of these? I'll likely try to build the new ones similar to how the old ones are made.....

Have you attempted to replace the horizontal phase detector diodes? Those are easier to change, and could possibly also cause this issue. It looks original in that photo.

+1.

Definitely replace the dual diode if you got horz sync issues that subbing the tube don't fix.

Would silicon rectifier diodes work there? I have some of those laying around......
