Yes it did get confusing about the series of events but I paralleled a cap thinking that a bad cap was the reason why the sound and Picture disappeared but it was not. The Micas that were put in not by me were the wrong values,50pf and 47pf was put in so I subbed the right ones. I used the resistance chart on all tubes in the IF and all others except verticle and horiz and amazingly they were all perfect something you don't always see. This pilot tv don't have the same amount of caps as other b&w tvs but besides everything was changed and it was working fine the only problem I was working on was low hv. As far as a picture there is nothing to show except a blank screen as if the antenna was not hooked to the tv. All I'm trying to find out is why the sound and video just stopped obviously there is something wrong and I'm not getting it but I went over so much that I'm now out of ideas where to go from here.
