Hi Pappy14, welcome to the forum I think you have defective filter capacitors in the vertical circuit. If you are not savvy with electronics it is better to get this fixed by a technician

you were right Jeffie, the tech took the tv to his shop to see how many capacitors it needs and said it would be about $50.00 to fix, plus service call and taxes it will be about $130 so thats not too bad. thanx for your help.
