1971 Philco color Tube Hybrid

Diode will be checked next, crystal replaced and issue persists albeit not as severe. I am thinking this could be simply a matter of adjusting the 3.58mhz oscillator inductor.

You mean you haven't tried adjusting it yet?

I later ended up trying to adjust it but to no avail, all it seems to change is whether or not the rainbow barber polls pattern is in motion or not. I will be revisiting this project soon as I had to put a lot of things on hiatus last year but will be going on a marathon of sorts later this summer and I am aiming to get the Ford Philco color sync issue resolved hopefully soon.
