Vertical Stretching and Distortion
I solved the earlier horizontal issue by replacing some very hard to get to caps in the horizontal section. The circuit board on this set has a large shield on the bottom that severely limits access. Anyway, got it done and the horizontal is fine.
The upper 25% of the picture is stretched vertically though. When a video puts someone's head in that area, they look like The Coneheads.
Could this be a magnet problem on the CRT? New vertical tubes. The vertical linerarity and vertical height do have some effect if I squash the picture down a bit but even doing that, there are still wide trace lines in the top part of the image area. Any suggestions as to what I should start looking at?
Thanks all.
Chris
