It's something not being properly filtered from the video stage, that's my guess. Old capacitors and an out-of-spec tube are probably the culprit, but I'm not a TV repairman either. Use the VCR and one of those godawful integrateds (like the one you had on top of it ) with some of those troublesome speakers you pile up until you can figure it out.

If you ever want a SMALL TV (A REAL ONE) I have a National Panasonic AN609D 7" you can figure out. Robust CRT but needs caps and a diode or two in the PS (overvoltage to the heaters). It's an Instant On set so I could NOT let it run warm all the time like that, but it had a great picture and it's bright blue, as Matsushita was so famous for never making a dull set.

Send money, guns and lawyers and we'll smuggle it into Diefendorfer's garage without a further charge. (SP sorry I wish Bush was the other half of Anheuser some daze)..

PS somebody tell me if ~~~THIS~~~ National has anything go to with the Panasonic namesake?
