Hello:

Thanks for writing.

Yes, it has 10 buttons grouped in pairs of 5. And, yes what you describe as
"retrace lines" is what it happening. So, it sounds like its worth fixing?
What is a flyback Pot?

Thanks for writing.

If so, thats a pretty popular Chassis and usually repairable. Cannot

Really
know what the Picture looks like, but you could be seeing what is known as
'retrace lines' - ? They Start from the upper Left of the Picture and

angle
slightly down to the right running accross the picture. Sometimes all

need
be dont is the Flyback Pot Adjusted, else the Flyback may be bad. Also,
sometimes the CRT goes bad in these Zeniths, then its not worth fixing.
