GOT IT!!!
the little bastard, it was an open lytic on the red lead of the vert out. That is where that pesky pincushion pulse is taken from. It was part of one of the can caps, so I guess its time to just go ahead and restuff them all. I know this would not have been an issue if I had just shot gunned the cans but then I would not have learned nearly as much about how things work. I checked the waveform of the screen grid of the HOT, before there was a vert freq wave riding on the DC, but it had a lot of hash in it. I jumped that cap and sure enough the top pulled in and the vert wave on the screen of the HOT cleaned up (no hash at all). The amplitude of the wave also decreased. If the darn sams had a scope patter on it for that HOT screen I would have been able to narrow it down a LOT faster. Anyway one more thing to know to look for when trouble shooting.
