OK So I did not have the cathode and filament tied together. I fixed this and the cathode current is a bit more normal now. I was going to adjust the hor linearity coil so I put the plate cap back on top of the h output tube and BOY the hv got me. I will say it doesnt have near as much as a bite as getting bit by my 87 TBird doing the timing with an old timing light.
Tom/Electronic Memory when it powers up theres a "sound step" noise squeal and this squealing noise. Is that the horizontal running off frequency?
I had it on. This time it didnt squeal and it settled around 220ma then slowly lowered to 190 then slowly moved to 200ma then it sounded like something came up and the meter rushed up to near 300ma. Turning the coil didnt really do much is seamed. Of course when it jumped up i turned it off
