Not anything similar.577 is based on the 5100 series scope chassis and display,the older 576 is WAY different.

Perhaps a bad resistor in the focus string?

Hi Patrick,

yout topic is a little misleading because you mention both the 577

*and* 576.

Do as Jim recommended. Check the HV area and the focus restor chain of your 576.

The 577 diagram (or very similar in the HV area: 5100 scope diagram) might be helpful to get a genral impression how Tektronix curve tracers are set up in this area around the CRT.

Fotr the 577: David's hint is valuable.

hth, Andreas

and if the CRT is getting weak,it will naturally defocus;the beam is emitted from a larger area of the cathode.
