Finally, the CTC-7 is alive!

After fixing the chroma issue I was having by replacing the crystal (and a tube socket, grrr), a little tweak to the killer threshold was all it took to get things going. I though something was still messed up, because the vertical streaking I was getting with the dot pattern was pretty extreme. Turns out all the controls on this thing are very sensitive, and it had to be set just right.

Color bars are still jacked, so I'm gonna run through the chroma alignment outlined in the manual tomorrow. That should be fun. After that, greyscale, purity and convergence, I'll post up the results. It's starting to look good now, despite the crappy cell phone pics.
