I have one TV-700U working and one spare (with dead CRT). One had ALL electros >5µF bad, and other had 1/3 bad. Statiscally, I bet that at least some can have problems.
If are some bad caps at same time with some RF/IF misaligment, the TV will be very difficult to use.

Are you aware of a full cap kit anywhere or should I just go through and find each one? I wasn't able to find a service manual for it online, or much info about it to begin with.
