One more update.....

I put up the color bars again and flipped the align switch. The colors were rolling through the bars again. I readjusted the ACG and found there are three spots where the rolling slows down and reverses. I picked another spot and went back and forth to get the rolling to stop, for the most part. I readjusted color and tint and got a great looking image.

Five minutes later, the tint had changed again to the purple side. I pulled and pushed the tint knob and it went back to normal. I find it had to believe the pot is bad as it is smooth changing the tint when rotating. Nothing odd happens when rotating it, so I don't know if pulling and pushing it did anything and I just got lucky. I'm going to press the chromatic button and adjust the inner pot and see if that one can keep tint setting.

The blue that showed up in the red, I saw the same thing when the color bars were rolling while adjusting the ACG. So I'm assuming that is the cause of it. I'm going to get out the scope tomorrow and check the waveforms as noted in the SM. Hopefully that will give some insight.

If I can just fix this issue, all will be well. I am very happy with the image when it stays adjusted.
