My $10 JVC Pyramid set (from Goodwill)

[Eric H]

I got a new CRT for this set from Video Display Corp, $45 plus shipping, it arrived earlier this week and I installed it and recapped the chassis'.
I only replaced the electrolytics since the rest are Mylar or other long lived caps.

It has an excellent picture now but I have a couple minor vertical issues. One is the hold control is touchy, I think it has a lug that's not attached to the carbon properly, it can be used but it will roll if you push downward on the control.
The other issues is a thin horizontal line across the center of the screen where some of the scan lines are brighter than the others, it's barely noticeable with a picture on screen but can be seen easily with just snow.

You can just see it to the right of Goofy but it's plainly visible across the entire screen in the snowy raster.
It follows the tilt of the yoke so it's not in the CRT.
