Decided I wanted to check if the flyback and other critical components work, before ordering any parts.

I replaced all the paper caps except two I didn't have on hand. I reformed the electrolytic filter capacitors without incident. Then I installed the CRT and powered on.. Up came a nice raster, and the blasting audio of a TV which isn't tuned into a station. It's even reasonably bright.. A rewarding sight after all the work so far.

High voltage measures 12kV, but the meter I used is always low, on every TV I work on, so I think it's probably right on 13.5 as the manual wants.
