hi all, i am trying i think one last time to narrow down what is wrong with this 63 silvertone ctc12 clone. to keep it short i just put a new flyback in this set because of hv issues but only to find out that the focus circuit was wired wrong so i corrected it and now i have hv where it should be but with the hv adjust at max. the problem i have been having is setting the drives up i have red, green , blue lines across the top of the screen about 2 inches down and much worse if the crt bias is raised so the bias is at min but still have the lines faint. it is like the drives are being driven to hard and cannot figure out why. no matter how i adjust the color even by the sams setup procedure it still is not right. all i want to do here is get the picture bright with good colors and no lines, like my other sets. its like there is a problem in the bias circuit, i checked the bias pot its ok, but maybe a problem befor the the pot in the circuitry, i just dont know. if the drives are down adjusted low and the bias is used alittle to get the weaker gun to show color on setup then after the switch is put back to normal the lines are worse and to high on the bias and the picture will bloom as if the bias is maxxed. tried different tubes but none make any difference. i am thinking there may be a problem in the chroma board like maybe a cap in or around the color amp tubes, 6cg7 or the 6gy6. any help would be great at this point because i am out of ideas,lol...
