picture, got it on the bench and seems to work fine except for 2 small lines
moving up the screen, these lines are about as thin as 1 scan line and are
separated by 2/3 of the screen. If we unplug the set from the isolation
transformer and plug it into a non isolated outlet, the picture becomes very
distorted with 2 large wide bands of distorted picture move up the screen
and sound has a load hum, looks like open filter. I replaced main filter cap
and few others that were marginal, replaced tuner isolation box, checked the
ps diodes for leakage, maybe one of the ps diodes is leaking under load?
What gets me is the fact that the isolation transformer makes it almost go
away, so I am thinking some sort of grounding issue. It uses a STR30130
regulator and if you very the voltage to the set picture is rock steady. I
do not have a schematic and sams does not cross, help, I am Stumped.
