The colors are wrong (a red raster from my generator appears purple, ect) and the tint control was only a little effect. Tapping on or heating the chassis has no effect. I swapped the analog comb filter board with no effect. It is not a purity problem. I found no tips for this in winstips. I am thinking maybe T chip or color crystal. Has anyone else seen this problem? John.
