I have seen that. But I am not really sure about it. The damper usually is connected with the primary coil, the other end is connected with the plate of the line output tube. This "damper" here has an own coil. It looks like a limiter. But the function of the damper is also to increase the plate voltage of the line output tube.

I have taken a look at the schematics for the Sovjet peoples tv set, the KVN-49. There is absolutely no damper and no double diode.

Kind regards,
