Looking good! What's the HOT cathode current running?

Always replace the cap attached to the cathode of the 'GF7 - that cap, more than any will cause problems with the vertical. Also go over the ground eyelets on the boards. Vertical / horizontal sync problems are generally caused by resistors way out of tolerance. I've restored three CTC16 sets, and outside of electros, the cathode cap, the sync resistors, and a thermistor or two, I've never replaced a single film cap.

Also clean the pins on the IF tubes - video will suffer If problems there.

Like I said, looking real good!!
