Greg: Believe it or not but I bet your main filter cap right off the rectifiers is either bad or bad connections on it. I have seen that cap cause twitches before on the CTC203 chassis. If that is not it, resolder the choke between the horizontal drive transformer secondary and the H.O.T base. Let us know which one of these fixes your set. Inquiring minds want to know.

Usually when the set is cold. I have sometimes seen a "hourglass" shape to the raster, (looks like complete loss of pin correction.) That problem is very intermittent. No stored error codes. Width and Pin Service adjustment work, but don't stop the problem. Replaced: Q14401 Hot, CR14402 Damper, C14801 S-cap, Q14802 Pin Output, Q14801 Pin Driver, U14801, Pin Amp Power supply B+ good, steady. Hot Collector waveform looks good, rock steady. Pin CBA Output waveform amplitude seems to "twitch" with the raster. Input waveform, dont think so, (kind of small) (is this a normal circuit reaction to feedback from somewhere down the line in horiz deflection?) Any ideas? This one's starting to consume my kid's college education. Greg Mitchell TV Niles, MI 70650.1534@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx ------------------------------------------ Make your TechAssist database better!
