The RCA 630TS has a manual gain control in front, labeled Picture control. Kinda weird until you get used to it.

My DuMont RA-103 is the same. I was initially dubious, thinking the designers were just a bunch of showoffs. Turns out that the horizontal and vertical are absolutely solid, even with different video sources, changing channels, etc. None of my other restored TVs has that kind of stability.

By the way, did you ever clean the contacts in the tuner?
