Finally got the nerve to fire up the chassis, and I'm getting sound from the speaker, with no apparent overheating. Just using some clip leads for an antenna. Let it run a half hour. Power transformer is cool so far - worried me a bit because I found some brown stuff(wax?) had dripped out the bottom onto the wires. Flyback primary is a little warm, secondary is cold.

Still havne't figured out how to make a shroud-type mounting for the glass CRT - more head scratching to come.

Onward!
