That could be it, Tony. The oscillator in the example pics is still
charging in the wrong direction when the sync pulse comes in.

Jürgen Haible's recently mentioned Dual VCO comes to mind... what's he
doing there with that pin 9 of the lower 3340? Sniffing the soft sync input
pin in order to check the state of the internal tri-core comparator?
