I will answer my own question on this. I switched the Red and Blue yoke plugs. The problem remained with the Red CRT. I unplugged the CN1612 plug (which is the Red convergence output, from the "D" board. Looking into the Red CRT,...the problem went away. I am going to change the Red convergence amp (STK392-010). I will report the results. Thanks, LLW LeRoy Westlund Westlund TV & Electronics " It's such a pretty world 93 North Main today !.... Centerfield, UT 84622-0087 Look at the Sunshine.
