My camera won’t pick up the intensity of green on the Westy.

I saw your video on Facebook. Looking good, congratulations.
I looked at the pictures you referenced and I get the idea. The red on mine will go out of focus if run too bright, but the grayscale will still track normally, so I don't think it's all that bad. I was trying to tweak convergence last night and the horizontal oscillator decided to lose lock and go off frequency, so it's back to troubleshooting for me. It looks like one of the mica capacitors is failing, so I'm just going to replace all the ones in that circuit. The resistors seemed OK, heated them with a soldering iron and they didn't change value much. Swapping out tubes did nothing, so it's not that. Oh well, we saved two more of these early sets.
