It actually turns out the smoking resistor is a 5k 10w coming off the color take off coil and feeding another 285v supply. I dont see any brown spots where burning has occurred on the resistor itself and I know a 10 watt dissipates a lot of heat. So it may just be dust on top of it burning off. But i recall never seeing any smoke until now coming from it. I checked tubes associated with it and none were shorted. I noticed that the resistor has a connection to G1 of the AGC amp tube. I had been adjusting the AGC in hope it may have given me a better picture, not sure if its set too high, but I dont think adjusting the AGC would cause this.
