Hi all, My first post. Have been fixing stuff for many years, but this one stumps me. Hope someone can help. I have an RCA CTC 165 that had intermitent color and was brought to a service center and diagnosed as needing a flyback. Surely because they didn't want to be bothered. Well it's my Aunt's TV and I choose to be the hero. So we retrieved the set and I changed the jungle chip. N/G...Teaked some coils. N/G. This all happened last summer about now. So I pulled the chassis to solder some stuff. Since I had no jig-I figured i'd replace the color crystal for the hell of it. Well a few months later I brought it back and it was fine for a year. Soon as the humidity started. The same symptoms reappeared. A hero no more. Just hoping someone has a tip............Flummoxed
