Re: Philips G23T210A
Thanks Simon for your tip on the S correction capacitor, I will be sure to monitor the boost voltage. I've had advice to keep the width as low as possible commensurate with a good picture.
As to the pcb tracking, I always dry, my tellies well before attempting a power up. I do basic checks for shorts, wrong valves in the sockets and a thorough visual check. First power is a cautious affair; slow ramp up on a variac to allow capacitors to reform. Sometimes if its easy, I remove the main HT smoothing caps for reforming on the bench. In this set, they may be on the PCB so I may go for the in situ reform.
I have been going through all the family slides that my mother lovingly scanned over the years. I have found one with a picture of our G23T210A (attached). The date is Christmas 1967.
