I originally used ceramic caps in mine and had vertical problems. Even now that I have all tubular caps in there, I still have to adjust the vertical hold after it has been on for a few minutes. I think it is just a characteristic of this type of set. Hawkeye can rebuild 7JP4s for $250 IIRC. It might be worth thinking about if you plan to keep and use the set regularly.
(QUOTE) The vertical is not exceptionally stable, I have to readjust it when I change the channel, and the picture sometimes 'shakes' a bit. But somewhere (I think here) I read someone saying that this problem was caused by having two ceramic caps in parallel as a replacement for those 6kv caps like I have.
