Possible delay line problem?
My CTC 7 has developed a slight case of ghosts. The set performs well in all respects except for a slight shadow to the right of the image. It’s reminiscent of the need to adjust the rabbit ears to clear it up. This isn’t the case however. Signals from a directly connected DVD player or over the air via a B-T modulator give the same result. Could this be caused by a defective delay line? Resistance through the line is approximately 100 ohms but from the ground connection to either end of the line shows a resistance of 1400 ohms.
I know there is a capacitance present but there should be no resistance between the coil and shield if memory serves. The horizontal, vertical sync and color are good. The AGC voltage is set to 10 volts P-P but see saw’s roughly 1-2 volts either side depending on scene content. This I don’t remember much about because AGC troubles were rare in my service experience which dates back to the early 70’s working on sets of this vintage that were still in use. Anyone have any ideas or opinions?
