While you have the chassis out, I would replace any remaining "brown drops" on the horizontal board. My CTC-11s worked "purty good" with the old caps in place, but they worked better after I got rid of the old "drops" on both of the sweep boards. Those caps don't seem to fail catastrophically like papers, but they are not immortal. Same deal, only more so, with my CTC-7; it couldn't make a coherent picture at all with the old dipped caps in place.
