I replaced the electrolytic caps in the B+ supply and vertical output circuits. All four of the can electrolytics in this set have cardboard covers over them which I was able to remove with a little heat. Then, I cut them open and installed the new caps. Once I'm done, I'll pop the cardboard back on to hide them.


Now I've got full height and good linearity. I also installed a new, longer HV lead so I can flip the test CRT around and avoid that grounding strap.
