Re: VECTOR: G05-802

By the way, I should add that I first determined that my problem was *not*
in the deflection board.  I would highly recommend you inspect the Z
amplifier circuit and make sure the signals all look good before making the
modification I suggested.  I had to make a modification due to the brand new
replacement picture tube I put in.  Your problem could be somewhere in the Z
amp circuit or something like that.
