Alright, so I went ahead and ordered a spare yoke from Moyers. I'll have to pull this one apart and see if it's salvageable, but considering that I was already having High Voltage troubles, part of me is wondering if the origin of this whole thing - the horizontal issues, flickering on the screen, power draw issues, and now the lack of picture - isn't because the yoke was failing. Would that be possible?
Part of me wants to see about running additional voltage tests without utilizing the yoke, original or replacement, to protect myself from any further problems. If I were to jumper some resistors to mimic the picture tube filament and yoke resistances, would I be able to remove those from the circuit for the time being?
