when storms near. We saw tons of these mostly combos with
blown FET's & other damage. On the up side they did throw a
nice pix.

I know what pincushion is, and it's not pincushion. All pincushion adjustments I have seen adjust how far it bows in or out at the sides, where as this is bowing in at the center of the top and bottom of the screen. On my Sony, how it was bending was dependent on how the deflection yoke was 'tipped'.

EDIT: Nevermind, I'm thinking of the parabola adjustment. I haven't seen a pincushion adjustment on a TV, actually, just on computer monitors.
