Finally recapped the chassis and I get a picture now (pic attached) but it still needs a little work...
I was getting sound before the recapping but now I'm not, though the radio produces sound. So I'm not sure if it's possible that I messed something up when recapping (though I was very careful) or if the lack of sound is somehow coincidental to just having recapped. I'll have to start tracing the audio circuit.
Also I need to clean the tuner (and controls) but I'm having trouble finding a good guide for doing so. I want to do a thorough job. Right now it can be a little tricky to get the channel selector in the right position to tune the signal. Pic of tuner attached.
I'm curious about trying to dial in the perfect picture. Since I'm not finding a focus adjustment, how is focus achieved/adjusted on sets of this vintage? The focus isn't bad by any means but I'm not ready to call it perfect yet either.
I'm also curious about adjusting the width. On arcade monitors of the 80's/90's there's usually a width coil for adjusting width. How was it done on these?
Finally, are there any other remaining suggested maintenance steps when doing electrical restoration on sets like this? I'd like to be as thorough as practical to ensure it's running optimally.
Happy to have gotten this far!
