Turned out the cause was the pot - sort of. I had reflowed all the lugs on it (and all the resistors back there, almost all of which I'd replaced years ago for being out of range). But the center lug only appeared that the wire was well-connected to it; wire was broken but it was still 'connected' via the melted wire insulation stuck to the lug. Prepped that center wire and resoldered. Focus is working dandy again. Thanks for pointing me in the right direction.
Now I can witness the VHF stations all go dead on it tomorrow : \
