I guess I am going to give up on this for now. Not making any headway, and tomorrow I must start getting ready to return to the ship. i had hoped to have this chassis finished before going back to work, but looks like that isn't going to happen.

I am starting to think this flyback has a short somewhere. After letting it run, I can feel around on the tire and find this one spot that gets too hot to touch. I guess that's where the short is. When it gets near time for me to come home again, I'll contact Moyer's and see if they have a replacement for it.

This set otherwise seems to play well. It's kinda hard to try examining the picture too closely because of a weak CRT and cataracts so severe that the safety glass will probably fall right off. But, from what I can see, it's got decent color, a stable picture, and tunes in stations great! A fresh picture toob will probably look really good running off this chassis... and look good sitting in a freshly refinished cabinet!
