Set has a few issues that I need to work on. Was totally recapped and all resistors tested and replaced if more than 20% out of tolerance.

Width will not fill out fully. Gets very close.

There is a white, squiggly vertical line in the picture on the left center. Cannot get it to go away. Tried all the horizontal controls (which move it some) and swapped tubes in vertical, damper and Horiz.

Vertical linearity is not great. Top squashed. Height and vert lin pots are maxed out. I notice a slight clicking sound which seems to be associated with vertical pot adjustments. Could that be the vertical output transformer? Might it have an issue? Clicking seems to get more rapid as I try and fill out the height using the vert. height pot in conjunction with vert. linearity pot.

Top left corner of pic seems to pull to left slightly as well.

AGC pot does not seem to do anything. Wondering if some of these issues might be related to a problem in the AGC circuit? Those tubes are lit and I swapped them as well. 6AL5 and 6AU6 IIRC.

So I will keep plugging away. Anyone have any guidance for me? Thx.
