I just did the mods tonight. The tv was changed-all three cathode leads were hooked up AHEAD of the 2700 ohm resistor. I suppose that would basically work, as all three cathodes were being driven with equal voltage. Regardless, I added the cap to the HV shunt regulator's filament string (since these tubes cost so darn much, I thought I best to treat is right), altered the RY amp (glad I ordered that extra 10pf cap), and moved the cathode leads to the point specified on the mods.
I installed the chassis, and I gotta say, doing the tracking is a LOT easier now-I'll get some pictures once I get ahold of our camera again.
My main issue is the convergence-I am able to easily line up the red and green guns, but the blue gun seems to be tracking too low. I still have to replace a cap on the convergence board as well as the diodes-not that I suspect that will be such an easy solution...
