Picture has retrace lines and is a bit on the bright side with bleeding to the right of images (like too much drive level). When I turn down the G2 (screen) there are dark patches. All the CRT drive transistors have normal voltage and signal levels. Is this the tube or something else? I think I read something at one time regarding the luminance buffer causing a similar symptom. Could anyone confirm this and which transistor is the luminance buffer?
