I found a TV doner that was supposed to have the very same yoke on the tube as the one I broke (medium res). When I pulled the TV apart the yoke appears the same but is off by one number (the last number is -21 instead of -11). I also noted they used a tan/brown wire for the yoke in place of the green. So I put the monitor together thinking that if it didn't work I'd use the "-11" yoke I had handy.
The good news is I get a screen. It looks pretty good too. What I note:
(1) The image is stretched off the side of the screen by about 5-10%)... each side...
(2) The horizontal sync is on a HAIR trigger. If the screen goes too bright it loses sync...and won't go back...
(3) The vertical hold isn't working great. I can get it to hold... but again, when the screen goes bright, I lose sync and vhold...we're back to square one.
Can this be a yoke issue? I am doubting so as the image appears fine (aside from the stretching off the screen on each end)... I've not messed with the horizontal width as of yet..
The chassis has NOT been re-capped. I just want to make sure this isn't a yoke issue and then move on from there. I'm guessing a cap kit and replacement of the horizontal hold pot are the first order of business?
