I've changed the CLM and the FGM. Not sure where to go from there, and right now don't feel like running it down.

No change at all on the Static...

Hi,

Next thing I would swap would be the neck boards (e.g. switch blue with green) and maybe the HVPS. What happens if You swap all the blue cables (deflection, convergence, focus and HV) with the ones of the green tube?

Regards,

That did it. It's the blue focus coil. A wire must have come loose inside of it

Wow, that's unusual. Never had that happen before.

Me too Curt, and that's why I didn't consider it before

That's possible when You do as much testing and board removal/reinsertion as Mike does...
