Default Distorted oscilloscope trace

You must get another scope and see if there are signals getting to the
CRT deflection plates when the input is grounded. Bad electrolytics
are the most likely problem!!! But, a scope is the only way to tell
for sure.


In this case shouldn't the distorsion be the same whatever the
y-position is ?

I have another scope (which I hoped to slightly upgrade), so I'll do as
you suggest and check the signal on the vertical deflection plates, to
be sure.
