This is exactly what mine did at first (but with smoke), but replacing the tubes I mentioned in another post brought the HV to life and the red plate, smoke etc. went away and became a nice, well aligned picture. Now I don't even want to turn the set on!
Where in the world can I find an original replacement for THIS, or is it unobtanium?
