None of the pots seem to have that issue, I sprayed them with contact cleaner too.. Also there is a slight hum in the speaker, when volume turned down, it's noticeable... Almost all tubes were bad in the audio circuit, and with the bad tubes, seem like the hum was a bit more louder at times at times, I was able to hear change in the noise as if there was a short, now seems to be steady with the new tubes.. There was very little color with the bad tubes in the color circuit, now with the good tubes installed the color can be turned up so much that everything just blurs out.. But it also has problems with the color, very noisy picture and the more intense the color is, the more worse it gets, color all the way down to a B/W picture, the noise is gone.. I know all CRT TVS have this and usually can be minimized by tuning it the set, but this just can't it's pretty bad.. Here's a video to show it.. There's multiple issues, but would like to start with the color issue first than work my way to the rest of them.. As you can see who ever put this rebuilt crt in didn't put it in correctly as you can see the numbers in the phosphor and then which you call it thing that should be down under the bezel, but I noticed the anode connector on the back is about in the same spot as any other tv, so turning the crt would only turn the anode connect more of a downward position, but perhaps maybe I could turn the tube around to where the upper part of the bezel hides that and the anode connector will be on the same side of the HV cage?..
