Kirk,  Try this (if you not already done so)... I ran into a very similar issue after recapping my HV Cage in an Old Tempest 10 years ago. Check the Transistors connected to the HV Cage themselves which should be Insulated Insulated with a piece of MICA or some similar item. Long story short, be sure that the Insulator(s) are Good in the HV Cage Transistors. My issue with Tempest was much like yours, when All Colors combined in the Attract Mode Screen which created the work TEMPEST in the color White, I would get an Instant Blooming Effect  Once I replaced the Suspect Insulators in my HV Cage - problem solved. _Arcadius  ________________________________ From: Kirk Spradling <kspradling_at_kc.rr.com> To: vectorlist_at_vectorlist.org Sent: Wednesday, January 9, 2013 7:59 AM Subject: Re: VECTOR: Wells Gardner 6100 issue in my Black Widow! Not a specific solution however when the screen size increases, it is typically related to decreased high voltage.  If you haven't done so already, I would replace the electrolytic capacitors on the deflection board and in the high voltage cage. The 6100 FAQ may have some usefull information as well.
