CTC-5 Westcott restoration

[SwizzyMan]

There have been these faint vertical lines all across the screen and I have been trying to just ignore it but it is driving me nuts. It goes away when the chroma is turned off so it has to be chroma related interference. Anyone know what these are and how I get rid of them?

I presume they are stationary? Do they vary in intensity with the color control setting? Can you see them when you have a picture on? Do they move left and right with the picture (or move differently than the picture) when you turn the H hold control a bit?

Completely static. More visible when brightness is turned up. They dont move and they only go away when color is turned off. They also go away when there is no signal being injected. I have hooked it up to a cable box and a dvd player and both had the lines. Also move with the horizontal hold.
