Jeff,
I can get 90% of the bows out of it by adjustments.
I have checked my cable connections twice.
I have tested the 110K, and the 82 K resistors twice. These resistors have
to be OK, cause my +16 volts is OK. The ring magnets are OK, they were
sealed with silicone, and havn't been disturbed. I think all the adjustment
pots must have been messed up by someone else, cause the customer bought it
used, from someone.
I am going to review the complete convergence proceedure, and start from
scratch again. I still think I can swing it in, just need to spend more time
on it.

Thanks,
LLW
