hi !
i have an offer to buy a used naomi universal. but it is not really tha cheap. it's technically and visually alright, but the screen has some serious geometry issues like seen below :

now i know that the picture not fitting the screen is easily adjustable, but i'm afraid about that "wave" on the right side as it is quite assymetrical.
is this still doable with the screen options to fix this or does this need some servicing / cap exchange etc.
i would be sincerely grateful for any help as the seller is getting anxious.
bad screen geometry
i tried the adjustments today and this is the best i could do :

pretty bad i would say.
one thing that made me suspicious - according to this link:
http://wiki.arcadeotaku.com/w/Sanwa29e31s
i have a sanwa screen as i have identical stickers. although on
my chassis i have "nanao" written down and it looks like in the
manual for the nanao 2931.
is this possible that someone switched the sanwa chassis for
a nanao one? i read somewhere that this is impossible as the
screen have different impendances.

this is getting even more weird. when i look at those two pictures:
my pcb:

ms9 pcb:

it looks like i have a ms9 pcb installed? i'm horribly confused.
should i try to exchange the caps on this or should i just toss this into the bin and buy a rodotron chassis?

is it possible that this might permanently destroy the tube or chassis ?
yesterday i tweaked around a bit more and got to a quite decent picture:

although the sides of the screen still "flow" on movement:

but i have found some expert on crt's who will exchange the caps for me so this might get better.
although before i do that i would like to confirm that this is actually a good idea. because otherwise i might end up better selling the chassis as it is and buying a rodotron 666a.
