Below is the original post on this unit. Now it seems to work fine, except for bright retrace as it powers down, only for a brief second. All voltages to CRT drivers drop to 25 vdc, then back up to 40vdc when the set shuts off.. Does anyone have a print of the ABL circuit for this unit..or other ideas? Thank you.
