Normally I try to preserve resto info I post but the cat I did that work for flaked out on payment he owed and I was a bit angry.
I hooked everything up and the cathode current steadily rose up to 200ma and then kept going towards 300. I unplugged the h output cap and it dropped to around 40ma. If i touch the h output cap to the tube it goes up towards 300 but then it started backing down to around 250. Tweaking the hori linearity coil had some effect. If I touch the plate cap you can hear the hv jumping. My tube tester doesnt test compactrons so I sont know if its shorted or not. I might have an extra. I had all the controls turned down so I dont know if there was anything on the screen.

No smoke from the flyback and theres hv
