update - new HO tube

Got the replacement horiz output tube today. It doesn't look like the one that was in the set (it looks bigger). It cured the lack of size and high voltage regulation.

Even though the convergence problems and etc. aren't fixed, I couldn't resist putting the Rose parade DVD on and taking some pix.

I set up Vert size and linearity first, but they drfited over about two hours of viewing, as you can se in the test pattern pix, which I took last. Also, I had the chroma a bit high. After about an hour, I noticed that the black level seemed to have drifted upwards a bit, so I turned it down a little. However, the lack of 100% DC coupling is also apparent, so it may have been due to the changing light during the parade.
