Philco roundie convergence

[DaveWM]

over all looks pretty good but for the extreme left where the vert is spitting out (I see blue all by itself).

I am going to check and see if the R16 (left RG vert) can clean it up. if not I am going to start by checking voltages at the output of the Se rectifier pack.

I am talking about just the last 1/2 inch of the left side.

when I get in in the viewing room I will get pic of the problem, it seems pretty severe, esp with all the rest of the set lookng good (right side seems very good).

does it have another blue convergence adjustment.some zeniths and maggies had another coil to clean up the blue.you might try sliding the convergence assembly up or down the crt neck to clean it up.zenith boards usually can get near perfect but i have noticed more than a few bad resitors.especially blue for some reason

[DaveWM]

not sure but I did read about a "wide blue" IIRC, it as a 4th screw on the bottom of the yoke that would allow some add's blue horz adj. Never messed with that yet. cant recall if it was a zenith or rca.

Never saw a Philco, Admiral or Motorola picture that was very good. The color on these sets never quite got it done.

i like the philco look myself.the reds are a little off but overall,very pleasing to the eye.high level admirals were pretty decent too.cant say much for motos.okay,but all in all,zenith,rca and sylvania rule.special mention to upper level maggies
