Next I wanted to see what the full sized CRT could do. Here it is all cleaned up.
Gave the chassis a CLR wipe down too.
It lives! Not at all fun to be around that metal cone when it's running.
Normal mode.
Expanded mode
I've swapped all the tuner and IF tubes and rechecked my work. Nothing made any difference.
I'll do a little signal injection next starting at the video amp and working backwards.
