Help with my scope!

Hello, I need a little help with scope problems.
I have an older 50mhz Hewlet Packard Scope. It seems to be having some trouble
with the focus. The only time that this happens is when I have it set on XY and
watching the two channels of my stero. What seems to happen is when I have the
Horizontal Scale knob set to greater then .2 mv per cm it is focused fine.
However as soon as I click the knob one over to the left to increase the scale,
the focus goes away and I get a fuzzy double line for everything. I fooled
around with the astigmatizm and stuff like that but it didn't seem to affect
anything. I have a temp fix that seems to work by putting a small cap between
the Horizontal input and the ground.  I realize that I could be experiencing
several different problems but could anyone give me a hand?  Also the focus
seems to get worse to the right of the screen. This could be my own fault with
the astigmatism. 
	The whole deal is not too imporant as I only have the scope hooked up
so I can watch the songs I play on my stero, but it looks much better when it
is sharp and I sometimes use the scope on people's guitars and my own circuits.

Thanks very much for your time.
