ok after an hour or rockford I see how the convergence is acting up.

it seems to be out of alignment on the lower part of the screen by vertically (on vertical lines you see red green blue side by side. on the top part of the screen the vertical looks good but the colors are displaced horz (colors are separated and stacked on top of each other on horz lines).

sorry if I am not using the right terminology.

So I guess convergence can be out both directions on different parts of the screen? in my case the upper and the lower.

I am going to spend some time tomorrow with the service manual. Looks like you could need to go to school to learn this stuff, or at least apprentice for a long while.

Wow, You done good and the picture looks great.
Try cleaning all the controls on the convergence board. Check and re solder the pins and ground connections. Also you may need to replace the selenium diodes. It is not as hard as it looks. {See picture}
