The chroma board had issues, like bad solder jounts and warping. Otherwise it's OK. I did undo several questionable repairs, including replacing the CRT socket (the lead was wrapped around pin 9). On the test rig, I get decent activity, but not that great. I need to disammeble the VHF tuner assembly to do a clean and lube. The wafers inside are still not cleaned to my satisfaction. I will replace all lytics and caps on the sweep and chroma boards. The CRT checked good on all three guns. This cabinet is not original to my chassis (the other was rain damaged), and it has some scratches. Unfortunately, it's masonite. I'll post pics after restoration.
