Tim, I got lost somewhere. It first appeared that you "re-replaced" a .01 capacitor with a "correct" .039, and also replaced a .018 with a .02. Now, you have put the "incorrect" .01 back instead of the .039, nearly a 4-to-1 difference in capacitance. Are you confident that the original part you took out was a .039? Photofact schematics are not infallible, as I am sure you know. Were other adjustments or replacements made in the horizontal oscillator or output circuits, while the .01 was in place? The bottom line of it all is, if it works well now, put the cover on and enjoy it as you said.
