Might not be too bad, as by the time the 7's were released they had the convergence problem under control, sort of. I was able to achieve perfect convergence in one of my 7s, but spent about 6 hours on the task. The settings held for a very long time, and the pic was great with a RE21FBP22 Sylvania tube, all new, not re-built. It was a Sanford in mahogany. Before that, RCA used carbon pots in the convergence circuits. In the 7, and subsequent chassis, they used wire wound pots, and improved circuits. It worked, for the most part, at least...
Aren't these damn TVs fun to play with and restore!?
