Hi Wes: Looks great! I believe RCA went to all mylar caps starting with late production CTC-7 chassis, someone correct me if I am wrong. The wax caps would heat up and drip on to the -Y output sockets, causing color flashing. I would re-cap the power supply, and replace any other 'lytics that may be lurking in the chassis. Then bring the AC up slowly with a variac, and see what you have before going after the mylars. You may be pleasantly surprised.
BTW, I hope to finish the re-cap of my CTC-4 this week. Then on to the crt swap, etc. Hope to have it finished in time to watch old color Christmas specials.
GOOD LUCK with your "11"!
Kevin G.
