Seriously technical but good points raised above.
The tube is in otherwise really nice condition. The original chassis had no signs of impact damage. The neck board, yoke etc were very dirty but without cracks/dents or any signs of taking a hit.
I’m going to give the neck, yoke and ring assembly a very delicate but thorough clean with isopropyl over the weekend as there was very thick black dust over everything.
The white marker line on the rings is still clear so I lined them up back to factory position and no real improvement. Tried sliding rings nearer/further along neck and rotated around neck to see what effect but still have the ultimate issue of the green grid being smaller than the blue and red. The corners can be pulled around a bit with convergence strips but the critical problem is that green grid size throws everything off.
Need to locate someone nearby with the same monitor that doesn’t mind me testing my chassis on their known working tube, just to 100% rule out any issues with the chassis and also to get some hi res pictures of the yoke/ring positions on the neck.
