This has happened with both of my HV units, and I've kind of assumed it was
just normal... it happened on my original unit until I blew it up by
installing a cap kit and then forgetting about setting the HV adjust pot in
the middle. My 2nd unit I got directly from Gregg Woodcock, as a complete
unit, and already properly capped and adjusted. I've checked the HV with a
probe and it is correctly set at 19.5kV. My picture doesn't fluctuate
however. Also, the snapping doesn't really start happening until the machine
has been on for 15-20 minutes, and starts out slowly and gets a little more
rapid with time. So, this problem (the snapping) may not be related - and
yes, on my unit, it seems to be coming from exactly the same place (in the
focus/screen assembly unit).

Do I have a potential problem with mine though??? The monitor is completely
capped and has an LV2000 installed and has been pretty rock solid... except
for needing to be re-converged (new tube installed).
