Update 1/29/04

Tonight I measured the voltage on the 6BL8 Horizontal Oscillator/Horizontal AFC. Pin 1 should read .5V and it reads 2.5V and pin 9 should be -15V but I get -27.5V. The rest of the voltages appeared to be fine. Also I noticed that the 6GK6 audio output was not even light. After I resoldering some connections thinking it was a cold solder joint problem on audio output tube I plugged in the TV. I got a rush of static in the sound and then the TV started smoking and I had to unsolder a shield by the 6BL8 Sound Detector/Limiter to look for the part that caused the smoke. Visually so far I do not see what was smoking. Thanks for any help.
