     To all who responded thank you very much. Someone sent 
me a schematic, its enough for me to trouble shoot the 
thing. This groups has been very helpful to me in the past, 
a lot of folks who are both knowledgible and friendly.
     The main problem is that the vertical position does not 
work correctly. It makes a difference but it looks like one 
side of the deflection amplfier is not working. The 
schematic will allow me to track this down. It may be no 
more than bad soldering somewhere.
     I seem to be collecting old scopes recently. I found an 
OS-8C/U at the same swap meet a couple of weeks ago. I was 
able to get that working. I have a good Tek scope for actual 
use but the others are fun to work on and the OS-8 as direct 
connections to the deflection plates so its useful as an RF 
monitoring scope.
