I had an issue where the tube was taking 10 minutes to show a picture. Rejuved the tube, then it went from taking 10 minutes to taking an hour or more. Installed a brand new B&W tube over the weekend, now it takes 5+ hours for *anything* to show up on the screen. That 'anything' was just a star or 2 on the very edge of the screen. After 6 hours, still no true picture. I assume my chassis needs rebuilding/repaired. Can anyone help me out? Thanks!!
 
If you don't mind the "shotgunning" approach where you just change out all the likely components I have a link around here somewhere that has sources and prices for all the major bits that tend to go bad. I'll dig it up if you want.

Otherwise this may be a job for Cinelabs. There are a few people on here who work on them but they seem to be harder to find than other types of monitors.

Cinelabs, good call. I'll contact Mark.
