Hey Steveo,

I live in Folsom and have been working on these beasts for a few years now and have gotten fairly aquanted with the in's and out's of color tube sets. And of course with alot of help from the folks on this site. I actually own about 6 or 7 tube sets now and most of them were broken when I picked them up. You most likely have IF or AGC issues. I had a Maggie u919 I believe it was. The first rectangulat CRT combo unit with the lovely 23EGP22 CRT. Yours looks to be a year earlier. I had to replace tube sockets due to brittleness as well. Im certian that you have connection issues and or out of tolerance caps in the AGC or IF.
