Poor color, can look like bad CRT
Bright white raster with retrace lines.
Jail bars on left fading as you go right.
Cant turn brite down.
AND others that dont come to mind !

Bottom line is change it on any SS set you are fixin !

Thanks I don't think I have any caps that go up to that high of voltage on hand at the moment but once I find what value the set takes I will order it. I have a RCA from 1991 and it has very washed out picture I thought screen control was to high but before I mess with screen I will check the 200v filter as to my knowledge no one has ever touched the screen control.
