Pilot tv crt

Do you have another 25L6 to try? Have you tried swapping the 12SN7s to see if the symptoms change?

Hi Timmy,
Having read through this thread so far, I have a few questions. Bear in mind I have never worked on a Pilot set.
Does a Pilot have a crt/ neck shield? The Sylvania 400 scope I finished repairing last month needed one to help center the spot. It had to be properly rotated.
You mentioned at the very beginning of the thread that the speaker had been changed. Where was the old field coil remounted?
Improper shielding and odd magnetic fields can shift your whole image. With such a small crt image it is easy to deflect it without any noticable change in picture linearity.
Just ideas,
Ed

Timmy,
One more thing you might check. Are your deflection electrode connections are on the correct crt pins. You stated that someone else had repaired the set, I believe.

yes I checked all the deflection wires and made sure they were where they are to be.
No it don't take a shield on the crt and the speaker field coil is still being used with the new permanent magnet speaker I just tack welded the field coil to the back of the new speaker and its in the same spot as befor but I can set in some type of shield to see if it makes any difference. And I subbed all the tubes mentioned. It really seems like low hv.
