Richard,

In general, there should be little or no dc offset on the convergence yokes. 
Just measure at the conv yoke connectors.  Some systems bias them slightly 
left and right on the red and blue initially to compensate for the 
horizontal linearity correction, but after alignment they should be pretty 
close to zero.  If you have dc of more than a hundred millivolts or so on 
the yokes, you either have a leaky component or the static convergence 
correction is off.  The latter can be checked by looking at the input to the 
output amps and centering the consumer controls in their range.  The former 
would not likely affect more than one channel.

Have the CRTs been removed or replaced?

Hello all
 I can't center the red&blue horizontally over the green. I tried the rings 
on the crt's as well as the electronic menu. I can move both about 2 inches 
with the static convergence menu but either the red can match the green or 
the blue, but not both. I tried moving the green around and trying to line 
them up but i am still way off horizontally .Is there a good way to check 
the dc correction voltages or adjust them? The circuit wont let me disable 
the electronic convergence to manually center the crts without blanking the 
crts.like I can on zeniths.
 TIA!!!
