I like that idea, they make significantly more output than the stock transformer does. Mark, it had a raster after replacing what I though was a bad 5U4, but after going back and looking at the tube, it was just installed wrong- they key thingy on the bottom had broken off. It still worked, but since I have umpteen bazillion of 'em, I tossed it to avoid future disaster.

It's now completely recapped (the 'lytics were good! ), but I can't get horizontal to lock at all. Nice bright raster, but no matter what I do, it won't stabilize. I need a schematic to go any farther with this one, who's got it? It's model 377. Near as I can tell, there's something wrong with either the sync seperator, or maybe horizontal still, but a bright raster and controllable horizontal makes me think sync.
