Recapped My Predicta Tandem, I don't know what to do
#47

I finally had a chance to replace the Networks. I have to say Chris's networks are really nice. However I have 2 left over 30-6037-1, and 30-6028-2. The picture is a lot better but still not ok. It fills more of the tube, and I can see most of the vertical lines now. Also I don't understand it, but the white distorted patch moves from the top of the screen to the middle and then the bottom every 10 or 15 seconds, occasionally the screen will be filled with it, then it will go to a different spot. I'm still seeing twitchy lines on a diagonal going through the screen, they have been there since I disconnected the original diodes and replaced them.  Is it possible AC voltage is getting into the chasis and causing my distortion? The picture I have up is the grid pattern. Also should I try tacking on the 2 caps to try and bring voltage up?
