These model Magnavoxes will put out a nice picture! They will also cook Flybacks so Horizontal Output Tube Current is critical...but you've got some work to do before getting to that point. As mentioned, I would not power this up any more until you recap it and give it a good visual of all connections and components.

The tubes that are PC mounted may be hard to pull after years of being inserted so do take your time wiggling any loose, especially if there's some heat damage. I would remove the chassis before removing any of the tubes and check those areas where the tubes mount as it would be a good idea to test them too.

The last thing you want to do is induce more cracks!
