Probably because it was hooked up to positive sync. That issue only affects negative sync.
And that was one of the first things that was checked.
All the pots have been replaced.
I can not find any broken traces.
It's possible that there's a bad cap (I did replace them all, but I do know that caps can be bad right out of the box) and will check for that first before replacing the expensive IC. Waiting on an ESR meter. I think this one is most likely because the sync won't lock. It comes close, but never stops.
