I always forget about those circuit breakers. You would think that as many RCA sets as I have, I would remember that. Duh.
So, the good news now is that I have audio and can tune in a channel.
So the chassis is alive at least. I still have no HV. The HO tube still does not light and I don't hear any hv frequency at all. Looks like I need to get into the power supply and begin from there. That flyback does look questionable though. Of course if a filter cap went bad and someone plugged it in, it could have fried the HV transformer and tripped the breaker. This is just speculation that further troubleshooting will diagnose. Anyway, first step, change the lytics.
Thanks for the memory jog on the breaker.
