Rebuilt a K7000 with a complete cap kit and new flyback, and I can't quite dial the focus all the way in. I get almost there, and the knob reaches it's limit. The tube has a universal burn-in over most of the surface, and I know that can affect it, but I normally see that with the best focus somewhere in the middle of the pot range, with the edges of the letters slightly blurry.
This is a P447, and the neckboard seems to be slightly different with regards to how the focus wire attaches, as it has a flap that flips up behind the socket rather than popping off like normal. I may try swapping neckboards just to see if perhaps the socket hole isn't making good contact, but I don't know what else to do besides rejuv the tube to see if that helps...
