Thanks fellows, but .....:
I have just removed the 100 uf cap that I had replaced the original
with and put in the correct value being 82 uf (found at Speedy Spares
Melbourne). So the video came on good but I noticed a slight flickering
occasionally. Anyway about 5 minutes later all went blank, no picture
no light on crt of the virewfinder.
Tested things and found one shorted diode a one shorted transistor near
flyback.
How lucky can one get?
Can anyone please tell me why this happened? ( perhaps these components
were already going bad)
Jim
