Exclamation Insufficient width....

And no, not in THAT way!! It's that Zenith I picked up.

Here's what's going on:

* I popped in the new 6LF6 I got, and set the efficiency.
* The set was fine, but the HV was insane - 25-27kv!
* Fixed that - the tube retainer spring accidently got hooked on a horz tube lead that traced back to the HV adjuster pot. So, it was like the POT was pegged at max. No biggie.
* But, I've still got foldover at the right side. And I need to be about 1/4" to 1/3" wider. I think these two issues are related. Swapping the 6U10 helped a little bit.

I don't know where to look here - I'm guessing the two issues are related. one suspect is the .0015 black timebomb cap in the circuit. Or maybe an electrolytic near there. And the cap on the horz hold control.

Does anyone have a copy of the schematic for this set they can scan in or send me? I want to get this sorted out because then I can get this set 100%

Oh yeah - how the heck do I center the picture? There's no centering strings on the yoke, or centering controls on the chassis that i can find.

Thanks guys!!!
