The elecrolitics and resistors surrounding vertical IC check out, one cap was 5% low but changing it did not help. I've done some research on line and this symptom has also been described as sony with shifted picture but no solution was provided (google groups)--- black line at bottom heads cut off narrower at bottom than at top. I guess it could be a timming problem in the PIN circut or in jungle cirket or ic, but this set is a little more stubbron than some to uncover its secrets.

Check all caps in the vert ckt and a possibility would be the jungle ic.Common failure.
