Tech-Master NIB TV Kit #5516

[Crist Rigott]

I've had a lot of suggestions from people on the ARF. While good suggestions, there is still no joy.

Everybody's help is appreciated and together we'll get to the bottom of this.

I think what I'll do next is to change out the rest of the caps and resistors that is left to do in the IF strip. Then look at the alignment procedure that is given in the instruction booklet and see if that will help. In the meantime, I might be able to round up another CRT that I could try. Another thing that is on my mind is to remove the CRT base and closely inspect and redo the leads going through the pins in the base.

I should have a good HV probe to go with my Knight KG-625 VTVM in a few days so then I'll know where I stand with the HV.

I just might need a smaller CRT. We'll see.

With Christmas here, my time in the shop will be limited for a bit.

With that I'd like to wish everybody a Merry Christmas.
