I'm happy with today's progress. I permanently installed the main filter caps, they had been jumpered in and hanging by wires since I connected them. I wasn't going to try and restuff the cans, and to mount them near the cans would mean removing the chassis, which I don't want to do at this point. So I mounted them under the chassis as neatly as I could. I j-hooked a few and was able to make use of a couple empty solder cups for one of them which was my first experience working with them.
I labeled the ones that are nowhere near the cans for future easy identification.

Also got rid of the hissing in the HV cage. I took the tube out, cleaned everything really good, put the tube back in and it's nice and quiet now. Next thing is to adjust the HV.
I still have that vertical jitter. There are three electrolytics in the vertical circuit. I replaced one, that didn't make a difference. Desoldered the next one and jumped in a new one, didn't make a difference so I soldered the original back in. There's one left, but it's tied into an electrolytic in the horiz section, so I left that alone for now.
