You may also try to observe the effect of horizontally moving the trace with the H Position control to the extreme left or right side. Let us know what you find.
I found that the noise decreases when the trace is horizontally shifted.
Also I managed to get rid of the noise almost completely by tightening some screws. It's still existent and still seems to be coming from the CRT. What I think was happening was the CRT was making vibrations from the deflection plates, and the vibrations transferred to metal plates that were just loose enough to vibrate a lot.
Not too sure how to describe the loose metal and vibrating part, but if you have an electric toothbrush, and lightly press it against a mirror, depending on the pressure you put, the noise will increase and decrese. Too much presure and the noise is there, but not very loud, a sweet spot of pressure, and it's very loud, not touching it at all, then yo just got your toothbrush.
