I have a 52-T1612 Philco TV which was recapped/restored in 2017

Over the weekend I powered on the TV for the first time in over a year, wanting to see if it had survived the transportation during a move late last year (it did).

The TV has a great picture and sound but it loses vertical "synch" when the image on the screen changes.  So I was watching a college basketball game on Saturday, and every time the program went to a different camera angle, the TV picture would instantaneously lose vertical synch and in less than a second, regain the synch and have a perfect picture from then on, until it was time to go to a different camera, etc.

Any idea what could cause this ?  Is it a bad tube or something possibly more major ?

I will post below the tube schematic from the inside of the set.

This TV has a split chassis.

Let me know if I need to post a picture of the synch issue.
