Ok my mistake the SAMs didn't show to check that voltage,grid, cathode usually it's ground or otherwise specified. So that voltage is neg 3 volts and SAMs shows 5.6 I believe but rider shows neg 7- 12 volts so this is still low and if the hv was up where it should be then the cry would be much brighter then it is and there would be enough voltage to even out the verticle plates and it would be centered. Went over yet more and still cannot find any mistakes. This set was all redone by someone else and done a very neat job and replaced everything caps, resistors, Micas in the IF and RF but it does have good sound and nice picture but just Alittle more then half and dark so I do think is lacking hv. Even turning the hv adjust on the hv cage brightens Alittle but does nothing for the verticle. These sets have 2 different linearity setups to improve this, 1.2 and 5.6 Meg ohm resistors and using different values for both don't help and has the 2 1500 mmf caps also remove for the other setup still don't help. I guess nothing will unless I can get the correct hv.
