only thing I can figure is judging by the warning sticker about not measuring line voltage the scope came from the local air force base where I work which may explain the 5ADP1 CRT given the inherent issues a non flat faced tube has with distorting the displayed waveform.

also the 5ADP1 CRT worked properly for how ever long it was in there until the focus messed up. when I got it I used it maybe 3-4 years before the focus problem happened and it always had proper focus.

I am begoning to suspect it is some defect with the CRT that maybe shows itself with age. only way to be sure is with a CRT tester or even better something designed for that CRT.
