Jordan,
Absolutely. If your triggering off of the mains, and the dashes are in sync
with the mains it pretty much proves that the Z modulation is most likely
supply hum. I would agree with your assessment of the power supply caps being
suspect. That was the root cause when I fixed my 533A. Your 465 is truly a
great scope that you will enjoy when you get it all tuned up.
Good luck,
George

Also, the dashes in the lines move along the trace...if the trigger is set
to Line, the dashes stop and the trigger led lights. Would this be a sign that
it's AC line hum? If so, would power supply caps be the likely cause?
