Dear all

Simple question.

I'm soon going to mount the Frankenyokes I bought.
Do I have the orientation correct on the picture?

Kind regards, Claus

It is the correct way. Now did you flip the magnet structure inside the plastic Housing? if not you might have to realign the deflection coil as the grid should tilt about 30 degrees.

Hi

I actually don't know. I bought them "ready to use" and the pictures in the Frankenyoke thread are deleted. I cannot find any pictures anywhere.
Here is a peak inside. Can you see if it is flipped or not? I was not planning on getting the glue off the deflection yoke.

Kind regards, Claus

I actually think it is flipped. I can see a tab that is opposite to the original whole.
I have been reading all the posts from Jarno, and it looks like the best solution.

Kind regards, Claus

I flipped mine when I put them in and the ground wire is towards the front like yours, so you should be good to go.
Everything worked fine and as previously stated in other threads focus is between 23 and 25.

Which indicates that the strength of the magnet is a bit off from optimal. If it focuses, it's good enough but ideally you want perfect focus right at 50.

I've had a heck of a time getting my mag charger rig built up and tested. "Life happens" as they say. And trying to find a GOOD magnetic probe at a price I'm willing to pay has been a challenge.

Hi CJ

Nice to hear from you. I tried to PM you a couple of times, but I got the project status now.

Kind regards, Claus
