Also trying to figure out how to get raster more twards the bottom of tube currently. Picture looks like its maybe rolled over?
After 3 caps installed to replace multisection cap,(1st 3 caps in main chassis I had done!), I lost raster, had to figure out why! Translation: I had decided after the complete tube test and pin straighten(daughter helping so maybe too much extra tube wiggle widened socket pins) with dabs of deoxit on tube pins, I took the chassis over to friends house, did the 3 caps and bam no raster! discovered yet again tube filament problems. 6bg6 wasnt lighting. I even tested the 2 and 7 pins to discover no voltage. I dont know if I tested wrong pins or wasnt supposed to test for ac but no voltage. Decided to tighten tube socket pins because it just didnt feel right and bam tube lit after that. Tube gets same voltage as other tubes so its not like that tube had its own special voltage.
